Aks Late in Tourney

Initial raiser was actually really tight player. I really only put him on 10s+,ATs+,AQo+. 3 better really didnt know much about him. He was sitting out for most of the time I had been @ the table. I really thought I had some FE here and I know I was planning on shoving be4 that raise happened.

+ Show Spoiler +

OHHH NOES!!!!

there doesn't seem to be a question here

you can't even call it a bad beat post wtf

I think I get it in with AKs there all day long with 21BB's. Calling then folding would be a terrible play, but I can see folding being justified as well if you have any reads on the raisers.

so this was all standard? even his call with the 7's?

his call with 77 is bad imo

but then again im life fucking cursed and cant win with AQ vs KQ or AA vs KQ or anything, really.

all of my tourney cashes are just bullshit flukes and i will probably busto into oblivion and fucking kill myself in a few days

push fo sho

LOL Chris

its a good push, stndrd

std push

His play is just horrible...

wtf his play is horrible?
hes supposed to 3bet fold to a 20bb shove, are you guys out of your minds. he has to call what 50k more to win 140k?

i misread. thought he was original raiser. yeah his call makes sense given his 3bet but 77 is still weak for that, no?

its also an 8.80 and i doubt you find many sophisticated players in there anyway

stnd no problem here

the other guys play is also fine, hes restealing with a legitimate hand (if he gets flatcalled by billyd77 he can push every checked flop which is likely to be quite a lot, and he hits the set every now and then anyway) which is the bread and butter in stackbuilding, then gets 4bet by another guy than the original better and needs to call because of amazing odds + likelyhood of AK..

and the fact that theres nothing wrong with 77's play shows you how correct you are to push with AK, when he does this with 77 he certainly does it with aq and quite likely with aj too, in fact he could be 3betting with far trashier hands than that.

this hand is fine, i mean i guess you can make an argument saying 77 might not be a good 3b hand in this spot b/c OR is utg+1 and has 25 bb's .

edit: and your read is that he's tag

balla-b13 agrees.

I'm making that play 95% of the time with 7's in that spot with that stack. Folding to the AKs shove would be disasterous - Liquid Drone is right in saying this is the way to build chips at this stage in the tourney. It's key to winning tournaments and not just "min-cashing"

"I really only put him on 10s+,ATs+,AQo+"


fairy tales.. nobody is that tight

I mean raising from that spot I really didn't put him on that wide of a range. I later talked to him he told me he had 6's. I wasn't sure if the 7's was good call cause I feel like AK was probably the only hand i was shoving here that he was still ahead of.
