Another early exit in a Live tourney. I really went out so stupidly, I was kicking myself. Anyway heres the round up;

So starts off, and my table is absolutley crazy loose. 5-7 way flops. So i sit tight, and play pretty tight. Pick up some pairs, and raise pre flop, and yea flops still manage to have 3-4 players in it. So I get the idea, that this is a BIG trapping table. No sense betting on flop, as there was ALWAYS someone betting on it. Particularly this one guy. Wow this guy was on some heater. Pretty much every hand he was in, and every hand he was showing, hitting every flop. meanwhile my 72o cards were keeping me out of trouble lol.

To my right, I seem to have a pretty decent regular. Stating that he had won the tournament last night. To my left, was a pretty solid player too. He was playing pretty tight, after stacking off someone early on with a straight flush.

I raise 4xbb preflop with AQo on button, and of course get 2 callers. Miss the flop, it was K53 or something. It checks round to me, and I cbet. One folds, and the guy to my right, pretty much insta shoves (who was getting quite low). I fold, even though I was cert he had air here. This bits crucial as to what happens later.

I make it to first break, and everyone uses any remaining add-ons (it was 2 rebuy/addon max). Just below average stack. Pick up KK and win that pot on the flop, which earned me some chips. I decide to loosen up a little, and pick up A9o UTG. Raise 3.5xbb, everyone folds round to the BB, who calls. Flop comes 4 7 5 rainbow. I cbet 1/2 pot, and he calls. Turn comes 9, and i fire out another 50% pot, and the guy INSTA shoves all in (pot is around 10k now, and he shoves around 12k in). The really fast all in just screams bullshit. So I ask him, "got 2 pair?" and he sorta looks confused and says "maybe". I then say, "you wanna check your cards to make sure?" and he looks utterly confused, saying "nah I know what I got". Anyway, I just get soul read and call his all in. And then he totally flips, "omfg how the fuck u call that? omg jessus". And he shows 62o rofl. He misses his str8 draw on river, and i pick up a big pot.

Now I get respect from players, and decide to keep up the pressure. Few hands later, I pick up A9 on the button. I raise 3xbb and big blind calls. Flop comes A T J (2 clubs, I have no clubs). Big blind checks. So whats my line here? I raise 3k (blinds are 500/1k atm). He counts out some chips and min raises to 6k. And this is where i totally loose it. What was I thinking. I re-raise to 15k (leaving me like 5k left). Just what the fuck was I doing? I though he was trying to push me out here. I should have flat called. But anyway, he then says "ah what the hell, im all in". Im thinking, FUCK? For some no brainer reason I think hes on a flush draw or he has JK/JQ. AFter putting so much into pot, and leaving me like 5 bbs, i stupidly call. He shows AT, and im truely fucked. The turn comes 9, and river is a miss. Now the interesting thing is, if i did flat call there, and the 9 shows on that turn, what am I doing now? I prob would have ended up putting alot of chips in and loosing anyway.

So what are your thoughts on how to play this flop in my position?

Well this annoyed me, as I had been playing well, and just stupidly dont think and rush the decision. Gonna stick to online for a month, and head back there in April.

Id hit it.
