I'm just curious, what's the purpose to starting the thread? Are you upset you lost? Are you confused with the K9 calling and flopping a straight? Are you upset you flopped a set? Exactly what Is the question you're asking, or are you even asking a question, or were you simply just posting to post?

They're not "Trips" they are called sets. Trips are when you hold Ax and flop goes AAx, that Is "Trips", Sets on the other hand are what you exactly had:)

Why ? Why not ? Sharing my exit simples !!!

Am I upset ? NO its a freeroll but when you raise 270 pre flop with blinds at 30 you would expect k9 to fold ? Maybe not !

online poker expect everything :)

What was preflop action that lead you to raise 9x BB?

Why would you want K9 to fold when you have JJ?

There is the daily game thread for sharing your exit hand if you need to.


I'm with OSMB, why the 9x raise, you are only making the K9 person think, "wow 9x BB, I want a piece of that" and it is the Thursday Freeroll where most of the players are not members afaik.

They say if you call with an average hand the guy with the better hands gets paid on average more !! OK this time it failed but I'm playing more aggressive and if you call that raise more often your going to miss or catch a little and pay out !

You can't get lucky all the time :)

I didn´t understand, you made a 9x raise pre-flop? There´s no reason to do that with JJ, your raise conveys the idea of fear of playing this hand. Of course that K9o isn´t a good call, but your pre-flop raise is very strange, and it isn´t good too, even if that you were the small blind.

I think the mistake is believing everyone in freerolls and in low stakes is playing poker. Yes the game is poker but with no skin in the game people are not going to be cautious and it gives them a chance to make calls that otherwise may or may not make sense. Just my opinion but I figure the majority of players that make sub-standard calls do so for a couple of potential reasons.

1) Boredom 2) they are not using it to necessarily play normally but trying different tactics out to see how they may change there play in $$$ games.
3) To make it to the end of this tourney you have to spend hours at the tables to do so. I suspect a number of people jump into these things without much expectation of sticking around for the duration and just make calls like this for the hell of it at least early in the tourney.

Then again I have seen calls on the WPT that made little to no sense from traditional poker playing strategy yet worked. As I am sure we all have seen.

anyway that is my take on it

It happens sometimes. You had 10 outs to make a full house or a JJJJ (21,73% to win 5:1 and the pot odds were 6:1), but the problem was to recognize the opponent straight and just call. It would be a good call, not a good reraise.

I was going very well in this tournament. I was with 9.000 chips until there were 108 players and I made a huge mistake and made big calls with a midium hand and I was busted of the tournament close to the bubble [54 players paid],

First to act not small blind, I'm not actually too fussed on the outcome tbh, just sharing my exit ! Double up or bust.

X9 raise keep the Limper's at bay, if you want to play average hands you pay for it, one did and won #GameOver till tonight !
