Hi all, compliments on the forum......long time lurker, just dipping my toe in the water now. Some great stuff here!
I've got a problem which bothers me and any help would be mucho appreciated!!
It's these big all-in bets from 1, 2 and 3 players around mid-tourney which are so obviously AA v KK v AQ etc.......
I've got QQ mid pos. I raise I get an all-in on the button and another on the BB....gotta call - problem being is that if I lose i'm out the tourney (just happened!). Cards flip and there's my QQ v AK v AQ so i'm pretty much 55-45? I'm pretty much up against AK because of the common cards right?
My problem is though that do you really always have to call ???? I'm out the tourney if beat and to be honest I hate these situations, it just seems to me like a massive crap shoot.....playing cash I can re-load but not a tourney.
By the way, I'm quite wet behind the ears...only been playing less than a year but any help would be fantastic!
