Hi members
I have a question or 2 for everyone who wants to answer.
1. What is your range of starting hands?
2. What determines your starting hands,blinds,blinds and antes?
suited connectors,high or low?
Now a quick story!
Was playing in PS early this am 1 of those 100k sundy tournament
think they cost $2.20 to get a shot at like $20k
I won 3 seats this week,but your only allowed 1 so they credit your account with the $11 prize.
So the story
Very early in the tournament I watch this senario unfold
every one folds to sb,sb raises to 90,bb raises to 150,sb insta raises to all'in,bb thinks 30 seconds and the time comes up....so he pushes he shows pp 99....and the sb who pushed first show K2 os
well the story goes that the sb wins with 2 pair.
But my questions are!
Why make that call,does the player not play well and gets lucky?
How can they even think about making a call like that?
Did they think they were pot committed at $90?
I watch plays like this day in and day out and I just dont understand. Can someone shed some light on this for me.
I even question the call w/99 but atleast it was a legit hand!
Anyway that same person donked out to me 10 hands later to my trip aces...he called with T7os w/ a flop of T A 6.....I knew he was loose so thats why I pushed,I knew he couldnt resist!
