In Response to Re: Thanks sky - great day : Thanks Rich I have had feedback from other players that they thought the 88 was a v. bad call. This is why i thought you might have used interesting in this way also. sry! If I fold, i have c. 10 bbs. Which assuming the shorty is busted by Colin is just enough to worry them i think 3 handed. But as Jen and Colin are both very agressive, i could easily have become mincemeat. Dohhhhhhh, It is possible i misjudged Colin's Iso range in this spot because i didnt check the depth of his stack properly. (my mistake) With Jen behind with lots of chips his range could be stronger than i had assigned. But tbh i have never been in a spot like this before (live FT, stream, decent money) I should have taken longer on the decision. On balance, i am veering towards fold but i am still not sure!, like i say no regrets anyhow! Its all good experience. Posted by GREGHOGG
hi greg
just to give my thoughts on the hand in question.
when the short stack pushes, i look to see 10s,,,, think about it ,,cant see your stack , past the dealer, i did not want to ask what you had behind ,i new what jen had, so i thought it was a automatic isolation,,, so pushed,,
when you started thinking about your desision,the longer you were thinking,(SEEMED LIKE HOURS AND NOT MINUTES) i had now put you on JJ,and when you called i thought i was a gonner,
the short stack showed AJ .... me 10/10...then i saw your 88. I COULD NOT BELIEVE YOU HAD CALLED WITH 88 IN THAT POSITION,, but was over the moon to be in my position 3 way , and was even praying for a ace or jack to hit , to save a 8 from being turned over.as the pot with you was the one worth winning.
very well played to you and the rest of the final table
ps...... greg im not aggresive ,,,, im a big teddy bear..lol

Thanks Colin for this post, and once again very well done.
You are right to say that the pot between me and you was the one worth winning, i only had just over 10 bbs so this is why i called. (the money jumps from 4th to 2nd was not as big as the jump from 2nd to 1st, and i wanted to put my self in a chance of winning the 4k. I was not afraid to exit in 4th and if you have AK, which is what i was half expecting, i have a big flip for some chips. In hindsight folding would have been better, but the call felt right at the time.
