It's been long (about 9 hours now). Gone from bigstack to shortstack and now 4/9.

I didn't reraise pre-flop cuz I'd just taken down the last 3 hands (bad reasoning?) It was painfully obvious to me through the whole hand what he had but I couldn't get away from it. What's a better way to play it, regardless of results?

You either have to check/call the river or bet/fold it.

Ok, that's exactly what I was thinking as I bet/called it.

3/5 at the break. My 59 pwned AT obv. and doubled with A5 vs QQ when he coudln't fold the ace high flop.
Funny thing about the 59 is that when I was the shortstack with 2 tables left I doubled with 59 vs AT so I wasn't worried.

bmxreed36 · #9 09-28-2006, 05:19 AM

Ugh, another break, this sucks. 3 left. I've been totally card dead (i had 7's once! and AK once too) along with being very tired and hungry and playing not well. I want it to end!

3rd for $1201. The whole last hour seems like a waste of time now, I'm exhausted. When I wake up I'll probably regret about 20 hands but thanks for the sweat, it really helped. Next time I'll finish it off.
