Posting trouble o_O

Hello colleagues, I have a question recently I wanted to make a publication with photography, but I do not let me publish it, I would like to know why it was not possible for me, and if as I go forward as a "member of the club" I will be able to publish photos.
Greetings to all

It is always sad to be rivered like that :eek:

But what does the math say bout this hand.

Preflop you have 45% win odds against those 2 hands, so you will
loose more often than you will win if this was a preflop all in.

Flop 63% If your all in on the flop your a big favorite

turn 61% only decrease slighty i win chance.

Nasty river - feels bad to see, but looking back at preflop, you werent expected
to get even a fifty fifty deal to begin with.

Good luck in the next one ;)

What you have to look at in this scenario is if you played the hand correctly. If it was pre flop all in and you called and lost to A-10 that is just unlucky, but I personally might be folding AQ a very good portion of the time in that situation if I get pushed pre flop. Did you make the betting cheap enough to keep them in? If so bet more on earlier streets to try to signify the strength of your hand and punish them for calling with worse.

At the end of the day you got in with the better hand and lost, which is just poker. Its tough to say what you could have done different because I can only see the end result which is you losing, but there is a lot of factors at play, like your raise pre-flop, if there was any betting if it didnt go all in pre flop, etc.

very apart from if the hand was well played or not; the important thing is that you managed to win a prize in a freeroll.

freerolls are very complicated to play and achieving prizes is more complicated.

I miss you little to get to final table.
Congratulations on your achievement.

Whenever I reach at this level with a good amount of chips I just look at the payout table and try to fold few hands where my stack has a potential to loose 100% and just 1-2 spot makes a huge difference in payouts.
Congrats on your win.

I went all in pre flop there for 2.3,,, mil chips the other guy F0rFoxSake had around 650K or at least that's what he had the previous hand , your man called from big blind with AT i think he had just a few 10K chips left or so very few anyway .
I for one would't have called with AT there , but hey he was lucky he risked with 74o and all in from 10 ppl left and if he lost he would have been out , so I dont know what to say ,
I guess you cant beat luck.

Thanks guys and girl , I dont say I am not happy , was great to get 60.40 dollar there
but ... them 500$ you know its sore , if I went all in like him few hands later with 74o vs someone with more chips and lost I would have kept my mouth shut but then that's why we have this vent sub forum :)

Still trying to figure out how to respond to these posts....BUT, the river reminded me of a similar play I made...and lost with.
