    Default What do you think of this line?

    $15 MTT, still early on. I was doubled up early on by a complete idiot and then was moved to this table. So it's only my 3rd hand at the table. I was gonna check the turn and call a reasonable bet on the river. I didn't want to see a spade or a queen on the river, so much for that...




    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (9 handed)

    UTG (t1645)
    UTG+1 (t4340)
    MP1 (t1675)
    MP2 (t1510)
    Hero (t3160)
    CO (t1395)
    Button (t405)
    SB (t2880)
    BB (t2920)

    Preflop: Hero is MP3 with , .
    4 folds, Hero raises to t90, 2 folds, SB calls t75, 1 fold.

    Flop: (t210) , , (2 players)
    SB bets t60, Hero raises to t180, SB calls t120.

    Turn: (t570) (2 players)
    SB checks, Hero checks.

    River: (t570) (2 players)
    SB checks, Hero checks.

    Final Pot: t570

    Results in white below:
    SB has 4s 9c (one pair, nines).
    Hero has Ac Ad (one pair, aces).
    Outcome: Hero wins t570.
    I think I'm going to give up playing poker.........and take up repeatedly hitting myself in the nuts

    I raise the flop to about 310

    As played bet the turn for ~350
    For Free Money, Rakeback and some 6x Ongame bonuses, I recommend PokerSource.

    I recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.
