Incubus77546 0 Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 So Im playing in a Play Money NL Hold 'Em Tournament at PartyPoker and the very first hand I get dealt is 2 2 Seat 4 is the button and I am in Seat 3. Well it gets to the guy in Seat 2 and he decides to go all in. Its on me to call and I just couldnt believe the position he put me in. Normally I would fold this hand in a second but for some reason I felt attatched to the 2's. So I take up almost my whole time thinking about how I know the man in Seat 2 has at least one Ace. Which if he didnt have a pocket pair that would technically mean I would be ahead in the race. So I call and so do Seat 4 and Seat 7.Seat 2 shows A K Seat 4 shows 8 5 (Why?)Seat 7 shows A 4 Flop comes A 2 K Turn comes 4 River comes 10 So with my gutsy call I win with 3 of a Kind. I mainly did the call because of what Daniel Negreanu did to John Juanda with pocket 2's. I treat Play Money Tournaments as if it were real money so dont get me wrong Im not a wreckless player. Basically what I wanna know is how do you play Pocket 2's and would you have called if you were in my position? Link to post Share on other sites
sxz18 0 Posted December 29, 2004 Share Posted December 29, 2004 Uh, no I wouldn't call. Why would you risk your entire stack to double up? You only win one out of two times. If you lose, you're busted. If you fold, you waste 1% of your chips. At least wait for a better spot. As for the guy who called with 85os, it is play money so nobody cares.
