You should also tell them that 10th place was a fondue pot. 300 pounds later here we are.CFetters_Nacho_Lover said:I’ve played in 1 actual poker tournament in my life in Vegas on the day I was flying back to Seattle. 60 people and I made the final table of 10. Mrs Nacho comes over and whispers to me we have 30 minutes to leave for the airport and I should make a call on whether we stay an extra night.
I start getting aggressive and win a good size hand so I tried to keep it up and was knocked right the fuck outta the tournament.
At least we made our flight on time. -
What’s the golden fucking rule? Leave yourself an outpawz said:14 players left in this year's WSOP Main Event - $10M up top.
AQ finds a CORRECT fold on a KQ2Q2 board. Just 6 hand combinations beat him (3 of KK, and 3 of KQ), but still ....

Assuming the video was straight forward on it … the snap all-in probably gives enough of a reason to exercise caution
The KK is obviously the concern but losing to KQ also enters into the play despite all the blockers to it … I wouldn’t even consider pocket ducks
It’s obviously a bit polarized but the snap call and snap all in after hitting trips just smells way too fishy -
Let's say the KK player has a naked Q instead. How is his line any different on the turn and river? Are we? expecting him to check-back the river?Tequilla said:

Let’s say I’m pushing with the naked Q I’m getting 3 outcomes
1) Opponent folds Kx or whatever bluff they were running … you’re winning a showdown there anyway with a call and those hands are never calling away their stacks
2) You’re running into KK, 22, or KQ and you’re getting snap called and heading to the payout window … if you call your stack away and run into the ultimate cooler then so what
3) The interesting scenario here with the over the top with a chopped Q hand is that if that’s your read then you’re calling off to chop
My big consideration at that point is do I have enough chips behind with a fold to rebuild and move forward … if I do I tip my cap if you pushed me off my hand. Just don’t see the risk/reward in my favor to call it off there -

You have to watch it. Just reading what these guys posted, without watching the hand, makes it hard to visualize what they're talking about. Maybe not to a regular player, but to most of us.YellowSnow said:

The part being missed here is if you DON'T call with Qx/2x enough, you are giving up piles of equity.Tequilla said:

There are definitely enough AA, AJ, AT, JT combos to justify a call w a naked 2.
This is the part equity exposure vs game theory that make it an insanely difficult fold.
*with regards to OP, 22 is a 7th, winning hand-combo available -
I don't know all the considerations. But if it's my hand, I'm telling myself that I have a full house with queens and twos, but with the king out there and two queens, there are solid possibilities that somebody has a better full house, or even a push. With that said, i probably wouldn't have folded.
