$1100 NLHE MTT Deep Stacked: $$1100 NLHE MTT Deep Stacked: Two hands need review close to money

Hi everyone,

Got two hands to review and would like everyone's thoughts.

This was the 2nd day of the $1100 Main at my local casino.

Blinds 3k 6k and I have 130k
We are 40 ppl left and 24 pays

UTG limps (400k) HJ limps.

HERO SB :9s4::9d4:

I raise to 19k and only UTG calls
Flop is as dry as it gets for my pocket 99s
:2h4::6s4::4d4:

I bet 15k and UTG instantly raises to 35k. I am actually disgusted at this spot. I feel like he limped a monster and is just trapping all the time. There were 5 short stacks 10-15bb at my table so I can understand him limping to induce.

I open fold 99 and he doesn't show. Was this correct or should I flat and re evaluate turn?

So after that fold I got kind of tilted because it was such a gross spot early on 2nd day. Our table breaks and I get moved right into big blind so I get little bit more titled. (Might be Important for decision later)


I'm in BB (90k) :10s4::as4:

Dealer button (120k) raises to 25k

So here is where I may of made my mistake. I don't want to blame tilt, but normally I have a pretty good mental game, but that last hand just kind of got to me.

Still 16 away from the money I figure his range in the button is wide enough to fold if I jam 90k
I jam and villian doesn't think at all and snap calls AQ. I bust

Can everyone let me know what they think in those two spots?

I think I'm a little upset because I grinded 12 hours last night only to bust because I think I made some poor plays 2nd day. 1st day I honestly played really well. I had 10 BB at one point and was able to claw myself back to make day 2.

First hand, I might jam after he raises. You can flat but if a high card comes, its a little tricky to play. He might have hands that call that you beat.

Second hand, I would probably jam. If his raise was smaller, it would be a clear shove. But since he seems to be committing, it makes it a little tricky. A10s is too good of a hand to fold. A10 offsuit might be a fold to this raise but that might be a shove as well.

99, why don't just jam preflop since you are almost 20BB? It's either a jam pre or a call probably if you think UTG is trapping
