Sorry, this hand has no instructional value, nor am I asking for critiques because it played itself. But it just happened a couple hours ago, and it was fun and a large pot. :)And I figured I show some low limiters that quite often 15/30 on party ends up feeling like .5/1 only with a lot more aggression on average.(btw it's not like I'm trying to say 15/30 is high stakes, it's all relative)By the by, I did half-believe by river I was either splitting with another AK or losing to 22, but because of all the people in the hand (obviously drawing, to flush draws or stupid gutshots or god knows what) I had to jam it I felt.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Party Poker 15/30 Hold'em (9 handed) converterPreflop: MrConceit is MP1 with Ac, Kh. CO posts a blind of $15. 1 fold, UTG+1 calls, MrConceit raises, MP2 calls, 1 fold, CO (poster) calls, Button calls, SB calls, BB calls, UTG+1 calls.Flop: (14 SB) As, 2h, Ks (7 players)SB checks, BB checks, UTG+1 bets, MrConceit raises, MP2 folds, CO calls, Button calls, SB calls, BB folds, UTG+1 3-bets, MrConceit caps, CO calls, Button calls, SB calls, UTG+1 calls.Turn: (17 BB) 4h (5 players)SB checks, UTG+1 bets, MrConceit raises, CO calls, Button folds, SB calls, UTG+1 3-bets, MrConceit caps, CO calls, SB calls, UTG+1 calls.River: (33 BB) 6d (4 players)SB checks, UTG+1 bets, MrConceit calls, CO folds, SB folds.Final Pot: 35 BBResults below: UTG+1 has 2s Ah (two pair, aces and twos). MrConceit has Ac Kh (two pair, aces and kings). Outcome: MrConceit wins 35 BB.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------That was my fondest hope, that SB had A2, by the end I wasn't sure I believed it though. As I said above, I figured sb had 22 or AK as most likely senarios with how he had played.

Yeah, it's hard to imagine what some of them had. Obviously at least 1 flush draw, MAYBE 2? But what else? QJ, JT, QT? A gutshot for a capped flop? Nice.

a $1000+ hand, nice. played it perfectly IMO, too many people would have backed off fearing a set, but you continued to be aggressive representing the best hand, which you had. nice hand again.aseem

Thanks. If there hadn't been so many people still in the hand I might have backed off a bit on the turn. But not when 500 people are drawing.M.u.s.t. m.i.l.k. the fish.
