ugh. out in 3rd for 5.5K or so. busted with deuces!!!! I had about 10BB, SB raised about 3, I moved in, he called with QJ, hit something, and that was that! Oh well.
LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL. Â The poker gods have a strange sense of humour. Â Nice cash again though, damn man.
I liked the final table, but when we got down to three I went kinda card dead, my raises were getting called and I was missing, etc.
I'm not crazy about the SB's call with QJo--I could have sooooo many hands that have him dominated and he doesn't want to double me up--but I'm not going to dwell on it. Pushing with deuces was the right play here, although I acknowledge it was the wrong play at the WSOP.Â
He was gettin 2:1 against your large range I think the call is marginal but probably right. I guess it depends on how big he thinks your resteal range is.
You need to learn to make trips deuces better like this guy. This is what I was talking about when I referred to "donking out" in my first post. I am 7th in the tournament and he is chipleader with like 150 left.

lol, nothing like cold calling 2 more bets, catching, and then not even getting paid off! But you did prove your point, whatever it was Maybe it's a turning point for you and the deuces, could be your new lucky hand!
My favourite line when there isn't a showdown with lots of paint on the board -- "I can't believe you play deuces that strong -- what an awesome player". And, it's true with you! Congrats on the big win!!

For the record, I only did it to prove a point (although I'm not sure what that point is) about deuces.
Yeah, I thought you'd like that. I pay through the nose to hit my set, and then get no action.
