| Thoughts Welcome Okay I play mainly low buy in tournaments for enjoyment. I manage to win enough to keep me in buy ins but nothing spectacular. I am still learning and would really like to know you might have played this hand different. Two hands in a row I get dealt KK the first one was simple caught a king on the flop and extracted as much as I thinki I could of off the other player. The second one was not so simple and I ended up losing a little.Please tell me what you might have done different. I thought maybe I should have reraised another time I thought about it believe me. I was against a player who could have eliminated me and I hate shoving with KK without seeing a flop. anyways obviously I played it wrong.

| Hand 1: I make it at least $10K pre. Alternatively if the table is very squeezy with more stacks in the 15-30K range you can flat to induce a shove over. Quote:
Hand 2: Easiest preflop shove ever. This hand illustrates the problem with your thinking. If the guy had more chips he could have either gotten away from it or bluffed you off the hand. When you have KK, the flop is going to be worse for them than for you, so let them put it in before they get scared of the flop. When you end up with a stack-to-pot ratio of like 1-3 you can be pretty sure you did something wrong. |

| re: Thoughts Welcome poker hand 2. I bump it again pre-flop to at least 25k. I'm happy to get it all in against anything but AA, Assuming the caller doesn't have it, that leaves a 0.5% chance. It can seem tempting to see if an A flops, but that's a defensive attitude that can reduce the value you get when opponents have hands you crush, like QQ or JJ. Plus you're a solid favorite pre- vs an unpaired A anyway |
