Watch a Jeff boski vlog and it reminded me of this hand that happened a couple weeks ago.
Daily MTT 100$ buy in, 25/50 blinds, 15K starting stack. I open AQs UTG for 225( a little bigger than my normal but I get way to many calls in the early levels with 2.5/3x blind opens). Any way the low jack calls and we’re heads up. Flop is J48 rainbow. I bet 300 he calls. Turn is an A, I check thinking I’m good with only AK & AJ to worry about, if he’s got one of those or flopped a set he’ll bet I can call/fold (def would have called) and go from there. He checks. River is a 5 brick. Now I think he’s a worse A like AT or A9 suited so I try and make up some value and bet 1200. He raises to 3900. I think for a bit and decide he thinks his ace is good and call. He turns over 23 off suit for rivered wheel. I didn’t even see/consider that I briefly thought maybe he had 67, but didn’t think he would call preflop or float me with 67. Oh well. I wasn’t even that upset until 3 guys at his end of the table said “good hand” “nice play”. That really tilted me. Especially when the guy acted like his whole plan was to backdoor the two perfect cards to get him paid. I will give him credit for a good river raise. Other than that I think he never should have seen a flop with that hand. I’d like to hear opinions on the hand and the over use of the nice hand comments in your games.Not sure how he justified a call pf or on the flop. Seems unfortunate. I wouldn’t dwell too much over this. I’m not sure there is much to learn from it necessarily. Luckily you still had over 200 bb’s. Hope you came back and made a nice run.
Thanks Brad, I went on tilt for a bit and got extra aggressive but fortunately I only got called when I had the goods. I made a decent run busted around 20 something place out of 90 some entrants. A few second best hands and a couple bad bluffs. The MTT’s at my casino are 20 min levels so you kind of need to steadily build your stack or the blinds catch up quick.
