Hi,

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t50 (8 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t1770)
UTG+1 (t1550)
MP1 (t3600)
Hero (t1815)
CO (t1215)
Button (t1445)
SB (t1415)
BB (t690)

Preflop: Hero is in MP2 with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
UTG calls t50, <font color="gray">UTG+1 folds</font>, MP1 calls t50, Hero calls t50, <font color="gray">CO folds</font>, Button calls t50, <font color="gray">SB folds</font>, BB checks

Flop: (t275) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (5 players)
<font color="red">BB bets t200</font>, UTG calls t200, MP1 calls t200, Hero calls t200, <font color="gray">Button folds</font>

Reads : BB did understand nothing about nothing, MP1 seemed OK

My preflop call was thin at best and the river was kind of easy [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] but what do you think about the rest ?

The call were expensive but the odds when kinda fantastic.

Your thoughts ?

Agreed, but note, in my defense, that at this buy-in , I think there are pleeeeeeeeeeeenty of chippos to be taken in the first 4-6 hands during which 1-3 huge monkeys want to prove they are the new Gus / Phil.

This is no longer true at the 16s, in my (little) experience.

Rex,

another problem is that with all those callers how do you feel about the ace or nine of diamonds?

also....do you see the flaw of your preflop logic in relation to gus/phil?

Not even at that buy-in is calling preflop with KQ OK!

Dont get arrogant just because you are playing at the 6.50 [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Take advantage of these calling stations with premium hands, not KQ. All you did was get yourself into a situation where you're barely getting odds to call.

i fold pre-flop and the flop as your outs are really cut by the 9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] being tainted. the turn i'm definitely calling.
