750 k gaur.


It starts in a few minutes, I never played it because the buy in was way too high for my bankroll but I can afford it now. Just for one time I will play it, because I really dont have an edge or anything it isnt worth it for me too play it every week.

So guys wish me luck!

If I make final table I will shit my pants. for real.

AK has been playing pretty well on your table.

I say what a moron.
I thought he had AK or something, for me it was the only move I could make because If he would take my blind I will get too short and the flop looked nice but I allready thought he had me with an overpair but he raised with K9 hmmm

Were you planning to go all-in regardless of the flop?

No, not at all...
I hoped he would have AK or maybe 88 so I decided to call to see a flop, maybe catch a nice flush draw or maybe even a straight but this flop was good enough for me to decide to go all in.
Blinds were too big too wait for a real hand. I finished 800 high.
Im not dissapointed about my play and thats what matters most

u can never FLAT Preflop with your stack. Allin preflop fsure and its not even close!!!!!!! Flatting in that spot is worst then folding by the way!

Call pf and open shove all flops unless you get virtual nutted. It's not even close.

His UTG range should be wider than his EP range imo. Not quite sure how late in the tourney this is, but UTG stealing happens almost immediately after the antes kick in. I don't see how you can call him a moron.

I think I know why you call him a moron. That doesn't make him a moron though. As you know, UTG raises get huge respect. He only needs to steal the blinds and antes in this situation ~45% of the time to immediately break even. The UTG steal is used frequently by good MTT players. I have a couple friends much more successfull at MTT's than you that make their living by using this move. How have you not grasped this concept yet if you've won so much already? Running hot?
