Hi Lads,
Appretiate ye're thoughts on a spot i found difficult on the FT of the EMOP in Prague last weekend. Some background info:
8 players left I think (its 8 or 9)
Average stack is approx 500k, I have 300k, Villian has 230k. There are 2 other stacks about same size as villians and the others all have big stacks.
We have been playing for an hour on the FT, and the villian is not known to me. All I know is he is a Chech player, part of the casinos pro team. I did not play at his table anytime during the tournament.
I have been playing very few hands due to being dealt loads of shyte. Got a couple of raises through and 3-bet shoved a lag player once on the FT, so my image has been tight.
As for villian, he has not been involved much. He did reraise all in on his bb once to a c/o raise and was called, and both players turned up AK. So thats all the info I have.
On to the hand. Me UTG, Villian in sb.
Blinds 6000-12000 with a 1000 ante. I look down at A-Qo, easily my best hand so far, and I open for 27k. (im playing 25 x bb's total)
Folded around to villian in the sb and he shoves for 230k.
And I?
Further information that might help. This is the payout structure, jumps are getting decent
1: €58,900
2: €35,340
3: €23,560
4; €14,320
5: €11,080
6: €9,000
7: €7,850
8: €6,690
9: €5,540
Something else ye might take into account. I was disappointed with my table draw.The 2 big stacks (both 1 million plus) and aggressive players were drawn in seat 1 and seat 9, and I am in seat 7. They kept me alive from 2 tables in as I was able to use my image and get my 3 bets and shoves through them without any trouble, only called once and got doubled up by one of them. So I do have a bad seat at this table.
Hope thats enough info for ye to discuss the above hand.
