HI Guys,
Anyone got any ideas on how to do this better please?
i have 6k chips
other guy has 2k chips.
I have k9 suited, haven't played a hand for 3 rounds, i am 5th out of 13 in vegas quarter.
.
I limp in 1st position ( 1st time in the tourney i hardly ever do that but i had a good feeling to play the hand) for a change with a hand i would normally throw away, as I havent played a hand for ages.
A top player on sb raises to 300 (2x raise)ages.
Flop is ace clubs 8 clubs 5 hearts.
i check (thinking to hit a club on turn or rr all in if he bets which is very lightly) He bets 300 I shove
i miss and he doubles.
I was hoping for a fold when i RR all in, (but i kind of forced his hand as he was short and if he folded it would have been 1/4 of his chips gone) , then if he called i could double if i made my flush (was a nut flush draw as the ace was on the board)
I know that i could have played ir better, I knew he hit the ace, even though 80% of thr time he cont. bets. I thought he might throw away a weak ace as i am a tight player.
I know i forced him to call though because if he folds he is very short. I just messed up! Grrrrrrr
My stupid play limping with k9 in 1st pos was the start of it.
Frustrsting as i know I messed up, my draw was to the nuts, he would have folded if he didn't have the ace, and i did have a 3.8-1 chance of the nuts, was it a terrible play?
