Though generally unqualified to critique the play of a thinking player, which it appears you are, I will leave my 2 cents.

I agree with other posters who have remarked on your raise sizing—it was a little on the small side.

Since the 3-bet jam was from such a small stack, I wouldn't much consider its implication. This is despite the meta consideration that a jam behind a raise with several callers with virtually no fold equity logically implies one of two things: a very strong holding or a lower suited holding that isn't likely to be blocked and is getting the "right price."

The limp-4-bet implied a middle to high ranking pocket pair holding. Because you were holding AQ, it was less likely that the 4-bettor was holding aces or queens. So, in all likelihood, it felt like 77-JJ (or KK).

With this in mind, it really depends on how you like to approach the early stages of a tournament such as this. If you prefer to build a stack fast, I would not fault a 5-bet all-in. If you prefer to reduce your variance (which it appears you do), your play was perfectly sound, as you were likely flipping, at best (for the side pot).

The other callers in late position also posed a risk, further supporting your decision to fold.

I believe it was the right decision to fold. Your hand was good but not to go all in before pre flop.
You did the right think..was a easy fold....."After the war manny heroes"......When you fold.....never look back....it is worst......a folded hand is a NUL hand.......Imagine all time if you 2....4 and floop is 2 2 2 .....is your mistake??? Of course not.

Man , I am not good , maybe tight , but yes , I would also fold , although in freerolls they play very crazy , sometimes I call or shove , even with less strong hands , cause CC freerolls used to be way far more tight in the past , nowadays we got full of crazy , exttremelly aggro and loose , ready to 3bet any hand as long as they have position , especially to you , especially LP (;)) , also call/shove very large ranges , players , some of them or sometimes everyone ready to play ATC !!!! So you have to play like crazy sometimes or always even in CC games nowadays . I mean if you just shoved on this spot saying IDGAF , I wouldn't say you are crazy or tilted or whatever . You have AQs , not a completely rubbish hand , so many times CC players raise , 3bet , limpraise with cr** , questionable decisions sometimes ,........... We are talikng for a freeroll , I repeat , a FREEROLL !!!!

But other thing is really strange with this hand ......

I know 1 year and 2 months have passed since the OP boomed this hand on boomplayer ....

But still ...

How the F this boomplayer hand has 1083 unique views !!!!!!! It's just a freeroll !!!!

In how many forums have you been showing it since then ?? They can't be only poker forums , did you show it in lifestyle , cooking , videogaming forums , forums for healthcare or beauty :)D) , other forums , other sites , maybe on every twitch poker stream that allows links posted , other streams , popular reddit pages , or what ??

Whenever I show the boomplayer hand replayer in CC , or in two forums I have 10 , 20 , 30 the most views , and we are talking not for freerolls , but for real buyin cashgames or tournaments !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Even in one year I won't have more than 40 (most probably less) total views !!!

WTF ???:eek:



:D

Im on the tight side so I will preface that before I write anything else. I believe the fold here is correct. Many players will limp in with monsters only to re-raise later or bet pot on the flop. The first villain could easily have you crushed here as he limped and then re raised. Plus with all the other action and this being early in the tourney I would fold. If you believe you are a better player than those you are generally playing against then you dont have to shove all in during marginal spots. You can be patient knowing other spots will arise where you can outplay your opponents. Good fold

When the player 4bet the 3bet small stack jammer i would not have 5Bet but I would at least wanna see a flop with the Suited Ace. In This Case specifically I would have flat called and folded after the flop. I can understand you folding with all the action left after you if you did decide to call. Your decision was the safe play and you can see it was the correct play this time.

Good Luck to all :cool:

wrong decision to tell you right away ... they were still suited :) because it was freeroll you should go all in before the flop, but well, it's learning from mistakes :)

Wrong, A Q s is a very strong hand, First your raise was week and after the 300 All in you should have doubled that or gone all in to thin the field.

Easy fold. You have players still to act behind, and you can't call off a jam. It's a painful lay down, but limp-raises tend to be super strong. It seems like you ran into the bottom of almost all of their ranges.

I always like to see a flop so I would have called the 4bet to 540. After the flop once everyone starts jamming and you missed with the diamonds and both your AQ. you just lay it down. The pot was won this time but it's definitely not a profitable call for that player. You Played it well in my opinion. Good luck.


Good Luck To All:cool:

Probably a fold, my game has been greatly by a HUD. Make use of it, only fold to loose or capable players, most players play too 5% on some clear situations

Early in a freeroll, I think it's an easy call. In most other circumstances, I would also fold.

AQ suited, this is quite a good hand, I think that this is the right decision, but judging how they play on Thursdays, this was a bad decision. If you played for money from $ 5 and higher, then your decision would be good enough.
