Unfortunately, the 2 on the turn gave shorty the pot, just before my table broke, and it didn't take long for what should have been a 180k stack with about 45 left dwindle to the shove/fold spot I was in.<BR/><BR/>No complaints, really. In the end, it was level 10 that was the start of my undoing, where I started and ended the level with a virtually identical number of chips, through 50 minutes of entirely unplayable cards. My only action that hour was raising AQ UTG, and having to fold to a MP shove in that spot from a player whose previous shoves indicated I was more likely facing AK than a lowish PP.<BR/><BR/>The last three levels had me pretty much in shove/fold mode, and fortunately, the fact I hadn't shown down crap got me sufficient folds on my all ins.Mondogaragehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03023431901646281284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38050293.post-68831470588939231292008-06-10T15:08:00.000-06:002008-06-10T15:08:00.000-06:00i had no idea those were two day events. 14hrs ??...i had no idea those were two day events. <BR/><BR/>14hrs ?? holy crap. <BR/><BR/>it's unfortunate you couldn't find a hand to shove with before you settled on A6. i think you're def better off trying to dubble than come back another day to end up shoving in the first round anyway. i don't think anyone can fault you on jamming in that spot. but, you're def gonna get called or isolated most times by a wide range of hands from one of the big stacks.smokkeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13494763585388001041noreply@blogger.com
