I played in a No-Limit Tournament yesterday and got Pocket Aces in the Cut Off. There were 1 Limper and 1 Raiser ahead of me. I don't know what the BTN, SB, and BB will do. Of all those players only 1 of them can take me out (it happened to be the Limper). I was afraid if they called there will be too many people seeing the Flop so I pushed All-In. The Guy that can Take Me Out decided to Fold (which is what I needed done) and I won the hand against 2 guys who have about half my stack. In other words I took them out.
I was afraid if too many people see the flop one of them might out draw me with 2 pairs or something. I decided not to slowplay those Aces. I can re-raise but I was afraid the other would call anyway, so why not just push All-In with the best Pre-Flop hand. The 2 guys I took out have Pocket Kings and Pocket 1010s. Was this a good play? How would you do it differently? Is it really possible to make more Chips than I did?
