Happy New Year, Anna & Stuart
I have a hand for you tonight which I think would be relevant as its from a £5k bounty hunter.
Session - 2310265748
Wednesday 2nd January - 9pm £5k Bounty Hunter
Hand - 605081864
I would like to know if I was right to call on the flop, not based on this one result, but in long term play, is it profitable?
I had put the other player on AK KQ? I knew I was behind but had the Q to the straight and any club for the flush, so had about 14 outs.
Thanks guys
Hi this is from Action table 35 (this morning)
#605198622 (08:05 03/01/2013)
When he raised Pre would you of folded or seen a flop, as i never know what to do with these hole cards.
I think that maybe i should of re-raised on flop, also i know bet on turn was way too low, tho when he only called it i thought that maybe he was on AK,AQ or AJ
It was a £10 rebuy tournament and I didn't have a clue what I was doing!
But somehow I made it to the bubble and was dealt AQ I shoved and my opponent turned over kk
the flop came JJK
I got up from my seat ready to leave when the turn came J In my mind I'd lost.
The river came down J, I thanked my opponent and was halfway to the door before the other players called me back. My ace had counted over his king and I doubled up.
I finished 8th and won £47.50 but more importantly at the time won a full English breakfast!
It was a great experience and the only reason I'd played was because the regulars had trawled the casino to get an extra player because with 100 players the house threw in bonuses.
Happy New Year every one, I hope you all have a brilliant time!
can't remember my actual first game of Poker as I played on play money sites on & off for a few years before I actually took the plunge with cash. - then one night after several drinks, I put some $$$ into my account (on another site). I was playing cash for a couple of hours and come the next day I had nothing left in my account!
shortly after that however I was entered into a $365 guarantee birthday freeroll. and out of 41 players I came 6th winning $26. - that was the start of my love affair with MTTs & SnG's
On a side note My Wife has decided recently she wants to learn how to play and there's a possibility she might join up and have her first EVER game of poker later on!

Thoughts on checking river vs. betting? When he shoves can he ever have anything i beat?

So it was right to call, but prefer to GO all in rather than CALL all in. Brilliant guys, thanks. GREAT SHOW SO FAR.
