Although board is kinda scary did I play the hand well? I mean going broke with top pair here?

 

[ben_rhyno]

Seems fine to me, could be AQ for a chop, A9 aswell as KQ/KJcc given his flats on every street

 

[Shufflin]

It's pretty early in the tournament to be all in with top pair, but I don't fault the way you played the hand. I might check the turn, to keep the pot lower -- doubt he's gonna get too excited about hitting a K...

 

[cjatud2012]

Basically once you get to the turn you have to make a decision - am I going to play for all my chips here or not? Because once you bet that turn, the pot is way too big on the river to think about giving up.

Once in a while this will probably be a slowplayed Tx but he probably has enough Ax in his range also, given that he is a weak-loose player, so I think I'd play it the same.

 

[WiZZiM]

Probably checking back the turn, we now chop with all of his Ax range. A few draws just hit too, but i wouldn't be overly concerned with stragiht draws.

He generally has an A to split the pot with you, he has nothing or drawing to something (not often). or he has you beat (not often). So betting and getting it all in by the river can't ever be really good for us right? That king also scares off a lot of hand we are way ahead of, like smaller pocket pairs. If we check, we may be able to pick up value from these hands.

 

[sryImPro]

this hand looks fine to me....nice and aggressive,generaly i think you should play like that in early stage of the tournament especially if there is a rebuy available

 

[ben_rhyno]

It's just a SNG though, so no rebuy. I think this is a chop like 80% of the time, a K and flush draw 10% of the time, Tx 10% of the time.
