AQ hand from a live mtt
$1500 guaranteed freeroll. top 6 pay and about 30 left. started with 1500 blinds start at 25/50 and go up every 20 mins. it was a bit of a crapshoot.
im seat 2. seat 1 is a big fish with a big stack who has been limping almost every hand and playing really bad. seat 8 is one of the actually good players. on a board of Jt87 he folded and showed AJ while other guy showed the straight. my repuatation has been tight. i havent played many hands or shown down a hand. im a live noob
SB is seat 8. seat 1 is UTG and im UTG+1. i have 1500 and AQo blinds are 75/150. table is 8 handed
UTG limps my plan?
here is how i played it...
UTG limped and i didnt really think about it too much and i had 1 purple chip that was 500 so i said raise and flipped it in. folded to seat 8 who said he put me in. he acted really strong and fast. then out of no where seat 1 called even faster.
i thought about it and folded. flop came Axx seat 8 bet 300 lol seat 1 pushed and seat 8 agonized and folded JJ (is what he said he had later) and seat 1 showed KK.
comments on how i should play it and how i played it? it was my first real tournament at a club and there wasnt much time to think and i didnt have my stack or the size of the pot in there for me lol i dno.
given the odds and the crapshoot style of the tournament i guess i shoulda called, but i was pretty sure i was beat by at least one. if it was AK i call there. i was going to call seat 8, but then seat 1 got in the way and i didnt really like AQ in that spot
