my sunday warm up run

    Default my sunday warm up run

    First I thought I should post this into MTT forum, but I saw that this is the place for higher buyins. But this is more cash game oriented forum so mods can move it to MTT if they want to. So this was 215$ buyin Sunday warm up on Stars. I actually bough into it with FPP's, so it was some kind of a freeroll for me. This is my by far the biggest tournament cash, so I will do analysis of it, because next time when I make the FT, I want to win. I made some mistakes in the progress, did some "wrong things at the right time" so that's why I am posting this, to help me improve my game plus I figured it is probably interesting for some people to see how to luckbox to the FT of a major tournament. There is about 100 hands here so it will take probably 20 minutes for you to skip through it. I have an advice for the lazy ones (I don't blame you) - just look at the hands with my commentary. Every important hand will have some commentary by me. I won't comment on blind steal hands, pushbots and that stuff.

    I am by no means a great tournament player, but I will explain my thoughts, so it might be interesting. If you want to see a HH win from a great tournament player, search for Chardrian's win a couple months ago. It is a great analysis. However, let's get to work.

    Bandit55688: doesnt show hand Here I make my first mistake. I have no reads on villain, so I shouldn't even call preflop. However, it is not a bad board to c/r bluff, because it likely didn't hit him. The problem is that I am representing a very small range, so if this was my current 1000NL cash game, people would float me, reraise or make any kind of a play on me. However, MTT players don't play that well postflop, so I made a move. It is not a bad move, but readless and at this blind level it is not good. The reason I did it was because I was steaming from 100$ buyin tourney I busted out in first level when I lost with top full against quads (never happened that to me before) - AA on 4Ax4 board, the guy has 44.

    Here, my computer freezes so I have to restart it, that's why I am folding all those hands. It was the only time in like one year this has happened and this steams me more than losing a big pot on a bad beat. I was just furious when that happened. I guess it was because of a PT database not being compacted. I didn't want this to happen again, so I played the rest of the tournament without PT running.

It was interesting how many beats I actually suffered, because at the end, I only remembered my suckouts, so I was surprised when I looked through my HH. The secret is to suffer a beat against shortstacks and suckout against big stacks. That's how you go deep into the tournament.

    Yo,

    I saw that you won 25k in this event and acknowledge in in the tourney summary, though I may be only one of few who actually knew your sn before now. Congrats dude, keep posting.

    Looks like the HH cut off. Funny to see gobboboy at your table, he's a freak and very weird dude.
    Check out the new blog!!!

    I should save it. Probably 2 hours of work went through the roof. I will do it again and this time I will save it somewhere. That sucks.

    congrats dude
    i dont like the early KJo hand...why raise so big if youre folding to a shove? did you have any reason to even play the hand?
    others look good although the Q9 is definitely marginal- i def wouldnt say "its probably ahead of his shoving range" but you are likely getting the right price
    looking forward to seeing the rest of this!
    My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.

    I have to post this in 3 chunks, looks like. Second time it didn't do the whole thing. I saved it like 10 times now, so I hope at least one time will be good.

    Hero collected 19503 from pot "That's what it's all about. Making the wrong move at the right time."This is probably a bad play by me. AQ is behind a solid UTG's opening range 9 handed. When he calls me, I am never ahead. AQ is the at the bottom of his opening range and he doesn't call my reraise with it. So I should fold preflop. But I have to take into account my suckout abilities so I can profitably play this hand.

    Hero: doesnt show hand A big raise by me. I guess I didn't want to play postflop with these stack sizes. This is probably a mistake by me, because I have an edge against maybe 90% of tournament players so I should be happy to raise smaller and move to postflop play. I think I was also watching Shark so i wasn't paying attention to how much I raise. Shame on me.

    Guardein collected 20700 from pot This is an interesting hand. Villain made a minreraise and I didn't know what to make out of it. I didn't think he would minreraise if he had AA, since he wouldn't want to give two players the odds to call and outflop him and should be happy to take what is already out there. I thought he was weak, but I also had to worry about a cold caller trapping. I also hate AT more than any other two cards so I decided to fold. Coldcaller woke up and reraised and I was really confused now because his play didn't make sense with these stacksizes. Minreraiser went into the tank and said that he folded AQ. It makes sense and I believe him.

    Hero collected 10437 from pot I am getting great odds here preflop, so I decide to call. On the river, I was thinking about value betting and I would definitely do it in a cash game, but I just didn't see him calling with worse in a tournamenta and some tournament players might check tpwk here 3 streets so I decided not to bet. Probably marginal decision beetween betting vs. checking the river. After thinking about it, I think I should bet something retardedly small.

I wouldn't do this if he had a bigger stack, but here, I didn't think it was so much damage to give a free card. But the money would go in either way.

    Hero: doesnt show hand This is aggressive game. If someone had a flush draw or a pair, he would bet it. So I decided to bet and if someone called, a big part of his range would be Ad. So I would fire any nondiamond river and probably also an ace, just because I couldn't help myself. Do you like that?

    neekhongbiet collected 173756 from pot Pretty standard. Villain actually made a retarded comment in chat, saying "ty" before the action was over. If I was one of the guys behind, that might make me throw away KK as sick as this might sound. It is just a retarded behaviour by him. There was this same setup later in the tournament, when fridhem reraised a guy with 99 and villain had AA and he slowrolled him. I was loling when fridhem made a flush and busted him. He said "Usually I say gg, but slowrollers don't deserve it." something like that. I agree. Whoever slowrolls in a situation like this one, deserves to lose. Just an anecdote.

    Hero collected 1151924 from pot Villain made a great call here. I give him credit. It looks stupid, but K8 is definitely ahead of my SB pushing range (which is almost any two cards) and I think his call is +EV. So, he made a great call, but he didn't take into account my luckboxing skills. gg.

    Hero: doesnt show hand If he raised me here, I would probably tank and somehow convinced myself to fold even though I did this pf raise c bet to him before. But this is just not the board people playback at so I would probably put him on exactly 55 and fold and hate it. C/c is also an option here, but this way I don't extract money from like QJ so I prefer betting. Thoughts?

    Hero: doesnt show hand This is an aggressive play by me. Obviously it doesn't matter what I have here, because it is either push or fold for villain. But I can't reraise every hand, so I prefer to do it with hands that have some equity. Also, you probably suspected that we are down to 18 players (don't know exactly when this started). So the game is tightening up, because people don't want to bust out before the FT. Fortunately, the most aggressive players are not at the same table together (it was me and stevejpa who was raising like every button on the other table).

But the blinds are big and he doesn't have much so A9 is probably ahead of his opening range so I decided to push. I obviusly don't have any fold equity. Unfortunately, an ace didn't come this time.

    Hero collected 2312000 from pot I was kind of commited when he reraised, was getting good odds, so I decided to gamble. This way I eliminated a guy in 10th place and now we go to FT, guaranteed at least 5000$. So the big money at stake.

    So the final table starts. Fortunately, I have the most aggressive player besides me on my right so I am able to resteal his loose opens. Stevejpa is Steve Paul Ambrosse, a Team Pokerstars player, he won some big live donkament, so obviously a great player. He is the only player besides me who doesn't play on scared money (at least that was my guess at that time). I was ruding for him to bust out because he is the only player that I probably don't have an edge at the FT. But unfortunately, he made the FT. A guy who also caught my attention was xBrycex. The reason was that Steve called him Bryce everytime he talked to him. For example "nh Bryce, ty bryce etc." while against other players, he just said "nh". So I figured he probably knows him and that Bryce is at least a decent player. I later found out he is a pocketfiver. So I figured he might playback a bit, but he wasn't very aggressive before the FT, so I figured he is a little bit of a scared money (but he might just be card dead). For some reason I didn't remember to use pokerdb. These reads are important for my FT play.

    Hero: doesnt show hand I raise limps from first and second place finishers. I really wasn't impressed by their play, they were generally very passive. Especially Salmon had a big stack the majority of tournament and didn't take advantage of it. If I had his stack, my chips would be everywhere. I might mention that before.

    xBryceyx: doesnt show hand I made a mistake here preflop. I just reraised the last hand and my image is very aggressive at this point so I should just fold preflop. When Bryce made a minreraise, I was seriously thinking about pushing. It reminded me of Adanthar replay of Sunday million FT (check CR) where one guy was very aggressive, but made too small bets because he was scared money. So this was going with my reads I stated before. He doesn't want to be pushed around, but doesn't have a heart to make a good sized reraise. But minreraise means AA a lot and he might minreraise with AA, trying to induce a light push from me, which he probably knows I am capable of doing. I didn't want to spew and I folded.

    xBryceyx collected 8294020 from pot So this is my bustout hand. It is a hand I will never forget and I hate AT even more from now on. It is the last hand before a 5 minute break. I was very aggressive and I figured Bryce might playback at me, so I decided I was ahead of his range and decided to go with it bvb. The thing that bothered me was that his reraise was kind of small. If he wanted to playback, wouldn't he just push?



    The Tournament Trimmer (v1.1.4w) was developed by JeffreyGB at http://www.FlopTurnRiver.com.

    So, overall, it was a great experience. I hope I wasn't talking too much bs. It took me like 5 hours to write this because I didn't save it somewhere else the first time I wrote it so I had to rewrote a huge part. That's why I might have to edit some parts, I might make some mistakes. Even if I don't get many comments, it was worth it, since just going through HH again helped my game a lot. If you have any comments at all, just say. Feel free to tell me I am an idiot. I didn't make comments on all plays, just on the big pots and interesting decisions, but I would appreciate if someone sees something else. I might figure some plays are standard, while they might be terrible.

    Also, I would like to add that I am not attacking anyone personally if I say they played bad (opponents will probably google themselves and find that thread, I guess). They might be great guys.

    I posted this in 3 parts so that I could trim the entire tournament, so I hope this doesn't bother you. Tournament trimmer is a great programm and FTR is a great community. When I was starting out, some guy here transfered me 30$ on stars so I wouldn't cash big here without FTR. So FTR, keep doing a great job. You rock.

    I agree that people in the tourney forum would be more inclined to read this, but the guidelines say 100+ tourneys go here. If we're going to move this then we need to have those guidelines changed so that this forum is strictly for ring games.

    BTW folding pre-flop after putting investing 40% of your stack is really gross.

    I would prefer to have it in MTT forum. I said in my first sentence this is a cash game oriented forum. I wanted to post there, but I saw in the last second that here is the right place.

    Mods, please move it and change the guidelines.
