Hello friends
Well, first of all, I'd like to tell you that my style of play is average, let's say I don't consider myself to be an aggressive player or a weak one, rather I would say that I try to be a thinking player. But sometimes, like in this case, I get this kind of moves that I would need from a more experienced player who would tell me at least what I'm asking.
The situation is this... I am in a cash tournament in poker stars in which 1230 participants enter, hour and a half of the tournament there are 486 left and I am in position 236, the minimum payment of the tournament was in position 72 if I remember correctly so let's just say it was fine.
In one hand I'm in the big blind, let's say my stack was 8 big blinds. One in middle position opens with 1 blind, the one in small blind calls his half blind and I decide to check.
My hand was really just a checking hand. The flop is . The one with the small blind bets 1 blind to which I, without waiting for the one in middle position to act, just paying to see a draw, I raise 2 blinds. The one in middle position folds and the one in the small blind calls only.
At that time, when raising the bet, I had in mind that my opponent could have either a higher pair than the flop cards or a possible straight draw since there was no flush draw.
On the turn the card is a which my opponent checks and I decide to go all in with my remaining 6 blinds. My opponent thinks and then calls. His cards were . He only had 3 possibilities, that another 10 would come up, that a Q or a 6 would come up on the river, otherwise if this didn't happen the hand was mine.
River card..... ....... community ..........The ...... I ...... .. Consequence ...... I went to have a snack hahahaha
Let's say that it is not a play that happens to me every day but it usually happens to me quite often and precisely me being in the big blind..... Many times the play goes well and many times it goes wrong.
That's why I come back to my question..... Did I play well??? I played bad??? My opponent was lucky????
What would you have done in this same situation?
Tell me to continue learning, despite playing years ago one day by day continues to learn.
