M,

Why did you fold on the flop?
08-20-2017 , 03:02 PM
Not sure you could have played the hand worse if you tried.

Nah easy 4bAI in standard daily donkament unless we know both players are really nitty and obviously UTG is terrible. AKs and 25bb needs a great reason to not be all in pre.

MLYLT,

How much equity do you think you have on the flop?

Certainly it is understandable that it is upsetting when someone shows the capacity to do these things for other people but never does them for you.
Hahaha, oh my.

Her posting is driven by emotions and manipulating code into paying attention to her. It's funny how well it works though. Code must be terrible with women.

It was a mistake folding on the flop.

Black, these were nits, I put them on premium hands.

Nits don't raise 98s UTG. And sometimes nits will fold hands like TT-QQ when we jam which is an awesome result.

And if you think their range is that strong somehow, folding is better than sticking in 1/3 of our stack just hoping to hit (much less sticking in 2/3 of our stack just hoping to hit).

Yep.

Even if you think they might have PREMIUM you have blockers to AA/KK.

Could have called the flop AI then mucked her hand

Flop: 10h10d2c
Mid pushes me all in and I fold.
Turn:K

UTG had 8h9h
Mid P had JcJs

I went all in a couple of hands later and was out. The only other almost decent hand I had all day was 44 and everything else was nothing but trash. I was at a table with a bunch of old man nits as well and couldn't make any moves. I basically blinded out, lost chips on a couple of straight draw, and then this play.
Omg just put the ****ing chips in

AKs is barely ahead of a 99+ AQ+ type range, which would be on the looser end of what I'd expect MP to 3-bet an utg open with. I'm pretty sure AKo is a snap fold in this spot and AKs is close.

You're giving live donkament players way too much credit here imo.
08-21-2017 , 12:19 AM
I've been feeling much better this weekend and even got some things done around the house. I hope to get back to the gym next week.

Does this count as getting laundry done? Maybe it will make it to the closets before the end of the week.

Many banned/exiled posters have been welcomed back to OOT after demonstrating good posting elsewhere on the site.
True.

Not when you botch the call for 3700 or whatever and leave yourself 3100. It is an autoship on any board whatsoever. Folding is just compounding your dumb 3700 call.
08-21-2017 , 10:31 AM
Yeah I was just talking about pre facing an mp 3bet cold. Of course calling and folding the flop was the wrong move.
08-21-2017 , 12:26 PM
I watch low level daily tournament play regularly and unless you've played with someone a ton folding AK here is a massive leak.

You really are off here. This is a $100 donkament with 20 minute levels. We are an orbit away from being under 20 bigs. AK is a fistpump jam here. Post the spot in a MTT strategy forum here.
08-21-2017 , 12:50 PM
My only real concern with that hand in that situation is whether the sudden massive blood flow to my erection would make me black out before I finished putting my chips in the middle.
08-21-2017 , 01:10 PM
The next time I fold AKs in a $100 donkament will be the first time.
08-21-2017 , 02:41 PM
I know a guy who plays $100 donkaments and will not raise AK pre no matter what and will also fold pre to a big raise. He is proud of it too.

"Not a made hand."
08-21-2017 , 04:33 PM
That's still better than the guy at a live game who told me he didn't like pocket aces because "there's nowhere to go with them."
