    explain?? you mean confirm how bad your opponents play is right?..you go all in against a large chip stack with a j off risking your tourney life and expect them to fold after committing 450 chips, OK you were unlucky and maybe your opponent shouldn't have called,but they did with a big stack to fall back on and a half decent hand and unfortunately for you they were lucky ...BINGO...this happens all the time and i know how frustrating this is,but to name the player as you have in posting this hand i believe is wrong,what is your aim in doing this EXPLAIN do you hope people will come on here saying what a bad player this is?

    A J off, short stack, I would have went  allin, then called and outdrawn, then say gg and leave, took my chance and lost, thats it. Naming the player is wrong.

    Simple, your all in gives them the odds to call

    I am sure they believe they have two live cards and if they do not put you on a pocket pair then they are at worst 40/60

    Your all in prices them in at 6/4 so with such a large amount of chips behind it is an easy odds call to make.

    And the player in question is also a very good player, have played with them lots both online and live

    im really sorry i didnt mean to name the player!! my unreserved apologies to him/her!!!!
    i just copied and pasted without thinking......
    the background of this is that he/she was bullying the table for a while with her stack

    i was just really annoyed, and i know i wouldnt of called with q 10 o/s for a 3rd of my stack when the best i could wish for is a coin flip, and was beaten by a lot of better hands!

    also i had played really tight up until then and shown the nuts once or twice

    my apologies again and if anyone knows how i can edit my post please tell so i can do it asap....

    i wasnt looking for anyone to say how much of a bad play it was fins, it was just meant to be a rant is all.

    Dan

    also the full house took the biscuit lol

    I agree with previous replies, the stack sizes explain it all. If the stack sizes were reversed I'm sure he/she would have played the hand differently.
