Much bigger prefloop raise on this buyin, but can't fold, many times he would have aq or semi bluffing flush draw....

How many hands on them? Doesn't look like they should have a 5 there preflop.

Preflop you need to 3 bet larger than 2.75x, especially in a bounty tournament as preflop calling ranges are extremely wider than normal.


On the flop, pot size bet is too large, 30%-40% pot would do. When you bet that much he is check raise shoving any Qx, 5x, or flush draw.


With the A heart on a 2 heart board, I actually prefer a check back on the flop. then you can call the turn and evaluate the river on a dangerous board

I would've bet more preflop and less on the flop, but wouldn't have folded that hand. It was mostly bad luck

Any 5 being in his range with those stats is kinda surprising so I'd really say more his luck than bad play on your part. With how deep stacked v is I would raise probably more like around 4-5x with AA mostly because you want the value with the best hand preflop but also because you want to put pressure on him to call with less of his calling range, which you can beat much easier. I think you played post flop fine and again just got a unlucky flop against a hand no where in his range based on the stats, better luck next time

3bet pre size looks okayish to me to be honest.
I'd usually make it 3x,3.1/2x but more than that in a tourney is a mistake in position IMO. This is also because you are 50Bigs deep. If you are shorter I'd even bet less.

The mistake is on the flop with your pot size bet. It makes no sense at all. What are the hands you are trying to get a call there with that size??
I'd make it much smaller like 30-40%. even 60% is reasonable

After he shoves it's always gonna be a call because there aren't many 5x es in his range And the only reasonable hands that you are beat are A5s or Queens (which would more likely 4bet)

In the end he was a fish who opened crap hands & called 3bets from UTG. Nothing to be done there

You played correctly but 1 out of 10 hands you lose with random hand.

Hi, Check-shove shows a huge strenght here (except flush draw, which also would be played the same) and considering the fact that if you loose you are out of the tournament, IMO fold is the better option.
About the preflop - with a raize from UTG it is OK for you to move all-in as the raizer will usually call and with AA it is better to make your decision till your hand is still the best. However against fishes you can not expect logical play and everything is possible.

I think that fold is a weak game here because it really beats practically its entire 3bet> call range, maybe except very unlikely QQ or 55. Call from UTG with hand 5, x is a big mistake and hero was unlucky that fish go suckout him

I would 3bet a bit bigger preflop and bet smaller on the flop, maybe around 1/4 pot, but I'm never folding on the flop, it's just unlucky for you that he had a 5.

Nice try villan, thought the idea of doing stuff like this was to let it go if you get raised.

DONT EVER LOOK AT THIS HAND AGAIN. What do you think, of course his luck.
