Silver Level
This was the first hand of my session yesterday. It is days like this I question my sanity (and this seems to happening a lot of time, I’m on the bad side of variance atm).
5PL (in for the 5.00) in the BB with AsAc.
UTG+3 (2.58) raises (.17)
SB (13.45) re-raises to (.35)
I re-raise to 1.25
UTG+3 calls the 1.25
SB folds.
Flop Js 3s 5h
First to act, I put UTG+3 all in for his remaining 1.33, get a snap call.
UTG+3 has JJ.
Ship it over with all the blanks on the turn/river.
Now maybe I had a bad read (Put him on KK/QQ to call 1/2 of his chip stack off). Personally I would have laid down JJ/TT and maybe even QQ when I see a third re-raise. I know not everyone plays that way, I get that.
What I'm thinking is that I made a mistake after the flop. During the hand I figured with the flat call gave him a high pocket pair. AA would have raised me again, but this might make sense for KK/QQ, borderline JJ/TT (Personally I would have folded JJ/TT). What I believe I should have done with the flop was check it and let him commit the chips, but I struggled with allowing the opponent get a free card. So betting the 1.33 he had left was about 1/2 the current pot but also putting him all in. I simply think he was commited to the hand regardless of the flop and I had case of bad luck.
So in the event of trying to better myself I was wondering what any of your thoughts might be, I appreciate thoughts/comments.
