PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t50 (9 handed) converterMP2 (t8730)MP3 (t935)CO (t2772)Button (t4635)SB (t3185)BB (t4290)Hero (t2473)UTG+1 (t10560)MP1 (t1840)Preflop: Hero is UTG with [As], [Ac]. Hero raises to t150.Flop: (t975) [5c], [2c], [8d] (6 players)Hero bets t400, Button folds, Hero calls t1923 (All-In).Turn: (t6705) [2s] (3 players, 1 all-in)River: (t6705) [Ah] (3 players, 1 all-in)Final Pot: t6705Raise 3x BB from UTG with pocket aces; get a million callers.Fire out a small continuation bet after the flop too see where I'm at.MP3 is short stacked so I put him on a draw of some sorts. CO is very aggressive and we've gotten into it on three previous hands. He usually has something (hand or a draw).

This call is okayReally, I don't think it's terrible or fantasticI think you were behind when you made it, and there almost has to be a set out there, since you have the Ace of clubs (meaning someone's not pushing with the nut flush draw)It would be a ridiculous tough laydown, and you were getting an okay price
Last night I stayed up late playing poker with Tarot cards. I got a full house and four people died.

I prefer raising more if im going to raise UTG. I agree that you were more than likely up against a set, but hit your money card on the river. Though im sure my opinion means next to nothing

good call....this could easily be 99 or TT, or maybe an overplayed flushdraw/TP
