    Default early mtt hand #2

    Table is loose, the overall tournament is loose, alot of going all in and calling with mid pairs happening, if i was later in position i might call but given the 2500 push i might of been scared away..

    I read a post by alex a couple days ago when he held the straight about not calling because its a community pot

    then i was reading hellmuths book about not worrying about folding hands that might have won you that big pot but instead of looking towards the next one..we'll see if it pays off

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    MP1 (t2940)
    MP2 (t4340)
    MP3 (t1390)
    CO (t2540)
    Button (t1020)
    SB (t5530)
    BB (t150)
    Hero (t3460)
    UTG+1 (t1430)

    Preflop: Hero is UTG with J, J.
    Hero calls t20, 1 fold, MP1 calls t20, 1 fold, MP3 calls t20, CO raises to t40, Button calls t40, SB calls t30, BB calls t20, Hero calls t20, MP1 calls t20, MP3 calls t20.

    Flop: (t280) 4, 6, T (7 players)
    SB bets t820, BB calls t110 (All-In), Hero folds, MP1 folds, MP3 folds, CO raises to t2500, Button folds, SB calls t1680.

    Turn: (t5390) 4 (3 players, 1 all-in)

    River: (t5390) 5 (3 players, 1 all-in)

    Final Pot: t5390

    Results in white below:
    SB has Ac Th (two pair, tens and fours).
    BB has 3d 3s (two pair, fours and threes).
    CO has 9c 6c (two pair, sixes and fours).
    Outcome: SB wins t5390.

    No way I'm folding to that push on the flop.... You would have won... Why did you lay it down?

    i limped in with jacks, i know nothing with no reraise and no information

    also ive lost with them in the last 6 hands to bigger hands i didnt have a read on, so someone slow playing a set or higher pair is what scared me off

    The fold is definately tight, but not a bad play...
    Still 15 players behind you...

    KJ

    I agree with Eclipse. You wanna isolate with Jacks. You could've played this like a limp-raise. Your opponetn gave you a second chance to make the right decision and you fucked it again. If you wanna play Jacks solely for set value like this, it's an elementary fold.
