    Default 3.30 MTT, final table hand need opinions

    The villian who called me in this had been making questionable calls all game, and getting very lucky. Plus he used the hammer move a lot to build his stack, he would call people to the river then push all in on the turn or the river and get them to fold every single time.

    I am not sure if my play was correct or in other words what would you have done? If you put in a raise he's calling you (as mentioned above).

    this is fine. The only issue I see is your whining. You're a small favorite on the flop, it didn't hold, get over yourself.

    meh - you mighta been able to get away on the turn, but that's doubtful.

    I don't really mind your play given your stack.

    And I think you know that dude's call wasn't really that bad.

    Losing races late sucks tho.

    haha excuse me? I think u need to take your own advice, if you are unaffected when you get busted out of tournaments then I think you can make this statement that you did, but since I know you are not, stop being a hypocrite kthx

    I think you have me confused with someone else. MTT life is too painful if you start agonizing over beats like this.

    I am pretty sure the acronym "ffs" was invented for MTT play.

    Why not go ai preflop, take it down right there and net 50k to your stack.

    Bahh ok I give up. I guess you don't have very much FE on a table full of big stack donks with sooooooted AX.

    If they are limp/calling you need to have an Ace or pair. Aces rule loose callers.
