Loose 1/2 game
H. A10 suited stack 88 btn imagine tag but lost a couple pot by not hitting draws at right price
maniac MP1 all in 47
MP2 calls
P CO calls
I shove my 88 I think I have the best hand based on reads and showdowns pot 352
2 all ins and side action between 2 players


I feel like I made the right play the result wasn't what I wanted but did get it in with the best of it. I had been card dead for a while. What do u think of my play here
Flop j t 3 check around
Turn j checks
River k MP2 bets 75 CO calls K-3 and K-9

You thought you had the best hand.
You did have the best hand.

You put all your money in when you were winning.
And two very low equity hands drew out on you on the river.

Seems like a pretty typical poer situation.
I'm sorry you lost though.

Co calls $88 pre then calls $75 on the river with tp no kicker. Never ever play this game shorter than the deepest stack.

That's the thing in this game if I had deepest stack I am probably getting a few calls even if I make 150 but then I should be able to get them off on flop. I don't like to chip up but maybe in this game I need to

I know being card dead can be frustrating. However, $88 in a 1/2 game isn't THAT short stacked and (best hand, or not) ATs isn't that good of a hand to go against 3 people.

You might be +EV, but you will also lose the hand most of the time.

Find a better spot.

+EV is + EV.
