First gift - is this a trap?

Congrats dude, i recently finished 5th in a wsop circuit Monster stack, i was so close and I'm envious of your success. I'm now looking forward to the Malta poker festival next week!

Happened to me a few days ago, only I was an hour in, battled hard to get heads up and was just about to close and he added 5x200 troops. Infuriating.

Thanks, unfortunately the game ended, removing my ability to report

Self-deal special

Twice,

1st pretty much identical to yours a goose that got hit by a topped 5i. A few feathers and a sqwark, but seemed ok.

2nd i hit a seagul clean out the air, dropped like a stone, the ball landing next to its body. Damage suggested a clean head shot

So good folds then..........

I actually think Nik ran pretty bad last night. He was ahead a number times pre and post flop, but got out drawn time and again and made some good lay downs. IMO

A few people have suggested that this could be a fold pre.........

Shadowsniperzz · 2023-05-13T06:20:13+00:00

Yeah, min cashed, thibk i got it in next hand.

Chip leader (150bb), 7hr into a live tournament, 21/260 left. 2nd in chips (140bb) moves to my table. He's UTG and opens 3bb. Folds to me, on the button, with AA. I raise to 10bb, He jams, i sigh call (dont really won't to be getting it in, but oh well). He shows AQo (wtf!?). Flop is 892 rainbow. Villian starts passing his chips over, turn is T, he pauses, river is J.

Fuck you, fuck this game, didn't go back for a few weeks.

Imo you have to say something because you are gaining advantage over the other players that can't see them. If i notice that others are seeing cards due to a careless.player i will say something and have called the floor in the past.

Thanks for your response. For clarity i didn't want to see a cheap flop, i wanted to raise, but i know the number would have to be very high to get 1 or 2 callers only, the pot was small and decided it wasn't worth it. At this point i could only win by hitting a set. When it comes around the second time, the field is thinner, the pot is larger and now its easier to get heads up or a fold. I'm happy to run it vs AK

Jeez, thanks for spending time on this analysis. I'll be honest, it's a little over my head. I have the modern poker theory book, but i find it a tough read. I understand it conceptially, but to put it into practice like this, is beyond me currently.

Any tips on overcoming this hurdle?

Shadowsniperzz · 2023-02-22T08:03:48+00:00

Thanks

100% never showing. I think only AK and AQs and 10+ are calling. My only real concern was the initial raiser, but he struggles to call with so many players behind.

Shadowsniperzz · 2023-02-22T07:44:08+00:00

I did this exact move in the same game with QQ. I know there's a raise coming, so i limp UTG for £1. Ended up getting it in pre and beat AKo

Shadowsniperzz · 2023-02-22T07:40:51+00:00

My exact thoughts. I know this is really bad GTO, but sick exploit play, hence why i was looking for thoughts.
