You bad beat him.
2nd hand all in KK with the straight and flush possible ...just a bit unlucky on that one I would say...maybe the right move...would have preferred to check it myself...but easy to say not so easy to do. Again ask yourself what is going to do this to you...then you roll the dice....
Exit hand - You're simply cold decked on flop. Plain and simple. However, by min reraising pre you are giving implied odds to the players to stay involved. I would probably have shoved and taken the money in the middle. AK could well have still called you but flash flush wouldnt and Id rather play KK vs 1 opponent than 2.
I answered this elsewhere, but here's my take......
Your Exit hand.
I think the problem was pre-flop. Peeps call very wide here, so I think a bigger Pre-Flop Raise might get rid of the others, but they are both big dogs to you, so in a way, you want some action.
The specific problem here was three-fold.
1) barstools was Calling everyone, & very wide. He'd had AA v KK early, & a few other coups, so was calling any Raise almost Blind. So he had a mountain of chips, & was playing gung-ho poker. Hard to get these guys off hands.
2) Once HE smoothed, that gave Flash a fair price to Call. I don't know what his hand was, but he had a good price, & he's capable of being lairy.
3) That Flop. It's just a HORRIBLE Flop, as wet as wet could be. Any sort of Raising hand is likely to be "adjacent" to that, with lots of draws & two-pairy-type made hands. But you had a re-draw, too, top Pair & any A or 9 is likely to be good. Wish so much money in, it's hard to Pass that, especially against a loosey like barstools. It IS Passable - but I'm not sure many would, could, or should.
You were just cold-decked by that combo of specific circumstances.
I won't comment very much on the A-Ten hand, as I was involved in that, & that'd be unfair, & hard for me to be objective. Except to say, your play would possibly be deemed correct in a fasty-fasty 9pm Open - but not a slowy-slowy Deepie. You had Raised, & I had re-Raised. You just ask yourself what my Re-raising "range" is there. The answer can only be 4 hands - AA, KK, QQ, or AK.
All in my opinion, I hasten to add.
But in terms of your hand Mike, I would of raised it a bit more preflop, but to be fair your not going to get rid of that guy with AK so its inevitable, just a cold deck
If it was a random unknown then I don't hate a call given your stack size as with the dead money in the middle you are actually ahead of a decent amount of a randoms pushing range.
2nd hand was a cooler...it is very hard for you to put this guy on AK cos he played it awful. There are some weird 2pr hands and possibly set of JJ/TT depending on how he plays but IMO with that PF action you can never fold this, as even if he does have 2pr/set then you have some re-draws to nut hands.
You played that flop totally terrible tho, on a flop that wet just get it in.
Overall PF he played it awful and on the flop you played it awful. You got coolered but tbh if he had any brains at all he would have either shoved it in pre or folded.
Hi all,
Just my thruppence worth, but here goes.
I witnessed the A10 and knew you were behind from the moment you called. You had enough chips behind to make an easy pass against a player that was only raising much less than 10% of their hands. We all know TK would have shown the goods as well if you had passed :-).
The seconds hand is plain nasty. The Sky Poker gods decided to have some fun.
With barstool calling most hands to see a flop its impossible to put him on any sort of range, but the fact that he then calls after a raise and re-raise without position would set off a few alarm bells and we then have to give them credit for some sort of hand.
The flop is just plain horrible. No other word for it. The additional problem is that we now have a lot of chips in the middle of the table up for grabs.
I dont think you could have got away from it. If you had flatted the flop and jammed the turn representing the flush you would have still been called as barstool had a great price to call the nut flush draw.
ok so you ramble on this nice little anecdote here, how about you actually provide details of the hand before you say 'you hvae good reads'
because i doubt it was a read. i think it was more like that stack sizes dictated that AJ could not be passed here.
and your 'read' was wrong tbf, as you got the money in BEHIND to 44.
im glad that people actually seem to listen to the 'advice' that you give in broken english, because you have no sense at all and have a very, very results based mentality.
LOL, seconds out...............
