Re: Discuss this hand
[quote:5f37b13c63="Zero"]Kid Poker said this in his blog recently, and I thought it was a good hand to discuss:
[b:5f37b13c63]I did make one significant error today, but it didn't cost me. With a big stack of chips I made it 1000 to go with KQ and J.C. Tran called from the button. The flop came K Q 8 rainbow and I checked. J.C. bet 1500 and I raised to 4500. The turn was a 9 and I bet 10,000.
That's a major error against a good player in a deep stacked tournament, do you see why? The way I played the hand it's extremely unlikely that I have the J-10 but J.C. could easily represent that hand. If J.C. decided to take this pot away from me, he could easily do it by making it 35,000. I'd be forced to make a wild guess as to whether he has it or not.
J.C. finally folded and I realized I got away with one there. J.C. even mentioned that he could have taken that pot from me- he was right.[/b:5f37b13c63]
So why does he say he played the hand poorly?[/quote:5f37b13c63]
I would presume because his 10K bet wasn't big enough.
It left JC with enough room to come back over the top to represent the nutz.
