    Default 3 Hands to be discussed (AK, AK, AA)

    (warning long post)

    Hey, first time posting on these boards but ive been looking for a few weeks now. Anyways, here are a few interesting hands that I would like some feedback on. Also, when replying could you state your experience with MTTs and the buyin level at which you usually play. (I would like your opinions if you play 5$ or 500$ tourneys either way.. just curious)

    So this is a 100$ MTT on UB which started at 9pm .

    Blue_fisH is at seat 3 with 2230.
    FouTight is at seat 8 with 2705.

    FouTight: Ah Kd , blinds 10-20

    Pre-flop:

    2 fold. FouTight raises to
    40. 4 fold. Blue_fisH re-raises to
    135. 2 fold. FouTight calls.

    Flop (board: As 6h 8d):

    FouTight checks. Blue_fisH bets 285. FouTight
    calls.

    Turn (board: As 6h 8d 7h):

    FouTight bets 400. Blue_fisH goes all-in for 1810.
    FouTight folds. Blue_fisH is returned 1410
    (uncalled).

    My opinion on this hand is that my AK was played very weakly and poorly. I wasnt playing the hand as I was on my way home, and my buddy was going to play the first few hands. I get home, the phone rings he tells me : I have 10seconds to call a allin with TPTK on the turn, what do I do? With no reads or any idea of how the hand developped, I tell him to fold.

    What do you guys think of this hand? After playing another 30hands with this Blue_Fish, I realized that he wanted to double me up because he played alot of hands and played them fast.

    --------------

    FouTight is at seat 8 with 1420.
    JBPockets is at seat 9 with 2705.

    River (board: Kh 4d 5s 6d 9h):

    FouTight goes all-in for 880. JBPockets calls.
    Tournament all-in showdown -- players show:
    FouTight shows Kd Ac.
    JBPockets shows Ks 2s.

    FouTight wins 2860 with a pair of kings.

    Any comments on the way this hand played out is always very welcomed and appreciated but I would like to know what others think of my all-in bet on the river.

    So after a few stupid moves ( calling a big pot sized bet on a open-ended strait flush draw and raising in LP with low suited connectors) I decide to try to get some chips.


    KIDDOUGH is at seat 5 with 13765.
    Ladylawyer is at seat 9 with 4520.
    FouTight is at seat 8 with 2590.

    FouTight: 6d 3h

    Pre-flop:

    5 fold. blance23 folds. KIDDOUGH
    calls. 2 fold. FouTight raises to 625. Ladylawyer calls. KIDDOUGH calls.

    Flop (board: 4d 9s 9d):

    FouTight goes all-in for 1965. Ladylawyer folds.
    KIDDOUGH folds. FouTight is returned 1965 (uncalled).


    FouTight wins 1875.

    Showed it too, because LadyLawyer asked nicely, she said she layed down AK but really really wanted to call. Thoughts?

    just saw your name flash across, I'm headed out here soon unless I pick something up.

    If Lady didn't show you hers, why show her yours?

    Plays all look standard, except the min raise then the check call (?) with the AK in hand one, puts you/your friend in a weird spot.
