Do I fold considering there's still one person left to act? I thought that the initial raiser probably has at least AK so at best I'd be chopping a pot. Any thoughts?

Well done by the way Drummy. Did you cash the 2nd tourney?

There's probably good reason to call at $1 stakes but if we take away factor it could well be a fold yeah. Fold would assume KK+ though I guess.

Did you have any player reads?

The guy to my left was a bit loose and the initial raiser seemed solid enough for $1 stakes (ie had an idea of good hand ranges and not to call re-raises with k7 suited so he could hit trips on the flop

) .

No.

I'll check that Hendon Mob link out at home, it's blocked by the work filter.

I think I would probably call with AK in that spot. We shouldn't be worried by the guy who flats your 3bet, he probably has 88 or something like that. As for the other guy, I dunno. Shoving for 3k total there seems a bit spazzy when a further re-raise could get him HU in the pot. Therefore I think he probably has a weaker ace or something like TT-JJ.

Dunno man I've made a lot of chips from open jamming QQ+ at $1 stakes or 4bet jamming 1000 bigs. But if he is a bit spewy then I understand the call.

What happened btw?

FT of an 8-game $2.20 if anybodys interested.

Standard is dog shite!

I folded and BB called. Initial raiser turned over QQ and BB had A10. BB won the pot with two-pairs aces and tens and there was a king on board as well.

It's tough trying to figure out everyone's ranges at these stakes as many do go in to it with the idea that it's only $1 so they'll be a lot fishier which is obviously good and bad depending how well your luck's holding out at that point in time. It can be equally frustrating and satisfying going from 'WTF did you call with that for?!' to 'easy chips om nom nom'.

I think folding there's fine. I'd have no problem getting AK in most the time at those stakes but given he's raised and then 4bet all in it makes sense for his range of hands to be strong.

came 4th in that 8-game got fished out so hard by the tables biggest fish. like Q32 Stud8 starting range. made a flush n what not. My showings were strong too.

Yeah, I don't think folding is bad either, fwiw.

gg Luw. For sure though you were going to take it down though.

On December 18 at 14:30 ET, PokerStars is guaranteeing $10 million in the Sunday Million. That's right. The prize pool of the Sunday Million on December 18 will be worth ten million dollars. As if that wasn't startling enough, first prize in the event is guaranteed to be at least $2 million. You'd be hard-pressed to find many $10,000 entry events these days with a $2 million first prize. On December 18th, it will only cost you $215 to compete for the life-changing money. In fact, it doesn't even have to cost you that much. PokerStars will be running satellites for as little as $1 or a few Frequent Player Points. PokerStars will also be hosting an $11 mega satellite with 1,000 seats guaranteed for the big one.

What is the prize-pool normally?

PostRe: The Poker Thread - GRSOP by **Psychic** » Tue Nov 01, 2011 3:52 pm

$1m minimum.

PostRe: The Poker Thread - GRSOP by **Luwinski** » Tue Nov 01, 2011 6:56 pm

We all need to sat in and have stake in each other! Bit of a syndicate maybe?

PostRe: The Poker Thread - GRSOP by **Dark Ritual** » Wed Nov 02, 2011 1:17 am

So in for that.

PostRe: The Poker Thread - GRSOP by **Luwinski** » Wed Nov 02, 2011 2:15 am

Will make a PM about it!

(If I get enough interest in this thread!

PostRe: The Poker Thread - GRSOP by **Drumstick** » Wed Nov 02, 2011 12:39 pm

I would be interested in satting into it, yeah. Wouldn't mind swapping action or something along those lines either.
