Tournament hand need some good hand analysis pls :(



Posted Sun Jun 29, 2008 5:02 pm GMT by Dogding_Bullets
Right. Tournament play i am one of the 2 big stacks with 13k chips (starting 7k). I am BB with 910 off suite.

Had a good read on almost anyone (loose/agressive types)but this new guy that played like 2 hands.Anyway 2 guys call.

Blinds 150/300

Flop : 10, 9, 2 rainbow

I bet 900, new guy calls and the other one folds.

Turn is a 10 and i have a FH. I bet 1600 trying not to scare him that much in case hes on a backdoor straight draw.

River is a K. And i bet 2000 chips.He goes into a little speech and says " You had two pair and now a fullhouse"? Or maybe your just bluffing. He thinks about it a bit and he goes all in. I think about 10 secs and i call. He had KK Sad

Anyway i am just wondering did i do something bad here? I was 95% on the turn but couldnt put him on KK. He didnt raise preflop and i thought since he had like 60% of my chips that he just wants to bluff.

Now what do you think? What was my mistake? Calling? Betting? Bad reading?

The only mistake i propably did was i didnt take hes little speech into consideration. If you know i got 109 or 99 why the hell you go all in? It did cross my mind a bit but i called Sad

Hand analysis needed Sad

Maybe the most reliable tell there is, players hardly ever mention a hand that beats them.

From an Ed Miller article in CardPlayer:



Quote:
If players start talking about hands you could have, they'll almost never mention a hand that beats them. If they think that you might have a set of aces, and they can't beat it, they'll keep their mouths shut and hope that you decide to fold. If they start talking about your aces, they aren't worried about them. Thus, when he asked if I had aces, I was pretty sure that he could beat a set. Since I didn't think a straight was likely, I thought he almost certainly had a flush.
