    Yup was a very good day mate! I shall be visiting the venue on a much more frequent basis from now on. (hopefully play more than 3 hands next time!)

    Heard u bubbled? sigh!

    I like the move where u were showing the top card (say a Queen) and saying 'decent pair but still didnt want the call'

    Love it! ur image is impeccable!

    Im going to guess and say u had errr... a jack or a ten with the queen? ;)

    Both of them were Queens, obv.

    188 runners, 18 paid. I departed 19th.

    I'm such a nit.

    Had a great day, though, & it was good to hook up with you guys.

    The only problem is the Tourney breaks, at 20 minutes, are a tad long. Oh wait - you never survived until the break, did you?

    Ive also posted this in the strategy section, but not alot of people hang around there. It was a live tourny at DTD, 10,000 starting stack 30 minute clock. Still in first level, but im down to 7,000 after a fiasco with JJ previously. MR station limps in CO i have QQ on the button and make it 300 to go. (blinds 25/50) All fold except mr station who has played every pot, from any position. Flop is 10 5 2. He checks, i want to play this strong to get max value so i pot it. Mr station then re pops to 3k... i tank and think he has a hand like A10, k10, Q10, J10. I shove 4 my last 6k ish and he insta calls, and shows 10 10!!!!! I just wanted to know what people thort of how i played the hand, was it just a cooler, or should i let go and preserve my remaining 5,000 chips as its early? Any criticism or advice welcome. Cheers

    I was in the forum deepy a while back and this exact thing happened to me against Kiwini4u in the 1st hand. I had 10-10 he had QQ, he raised i called and the board came 10, and two lower cards. He put a bet in and i went the lot, the result was the same and he's a decent player, so i reckon 99/100 you gonna do your stack.

    Call flop get it in on turn and lose and be like oh dam. There is alot of loose dead money in these live events, sometimes they hit hands though.

    If Mr Station has just been calling to the river every hand, i.e not raising when he hits maybe you get away if you are 100% on the top of your game, but tbh I would be sat there thinking if theres no A or K on the flop then I'm gonna try to get all my chips in as you would expect to be ahead most of the time here and if hes gone and got AA, KK or a set then goodbye me wp sir gl.

    Hi Dan Just two questions - 1) Was your QQ suited? :) and 2) Was the other player TK as i believe he was at DTD this week end? Actually, all joking apart, you know you are a dam fine player and it looks just like a cooler situation to me but like others above, I would of probably been cautious of the opponent hitting trips on that flop. Just put it down to experience! BTW, what was the entrance fee for this tourney? I have promised myself a trip to DTD soon but my BR is not in great shape at the mo so need to pick wisely. I have played loads of pub live poker but need to get a feel for casino live poker this year. Any advice from yourself will be most welcome, Cheers
