[Shermhoy's Weblog] FTOPS Event #15 - Ship $32K: I was able to cash pretty easily with about 25k but had the big stack directly to my left and it was limitting my moves. I did however get a couple good spots where short stacks were pushing with weak hands and i was able to pick them off. I was also making tons of laydowns when getting reraised and not playing any big pots where I wasn’t sure I had the best hand. That got me up to 60K and then the big hand came. I had AA on the button and a short stack pushes for 15k. I just call and the small blind pushes for 60k I obv call and he has QQ while the short stack has JJ. Im able to survive both to the river which was a Jack so I didn’t win the side pot but was able to win 40K on that pot and build to 100K. It wasn’t all smooth sailing though. I lost a 60K pot where I had 7 7 and board was 7 10 3. He checks i bet, he raises I just call. Turn is a King and he pushes all in I call and he has 8 9 and spikes a Jack on the river. Normally in past tournies that woulda led me to tilt and lose but my patience prevailed and I just kept up the selective agression and was able to get back my stack in less then 30 minutes.

[The Grand Slam Poker Source] TGSPS Answers Your Questions (February 16, 2008): If you were playing from the button, a more modest raise or a smooth call might have been more appropriate than a raise to 10,000. I’m sure you believed you had the best hand (and you did). You also had position, and that is the key. This is a much easier hand to play from a better position. Therefore, your goal should have been to devise a way to get your opponent to put chips into the pot without committing yourself to it if your opponent or one of the big blinds moves all-in. I’m quite surprised your opponent was able to put an additional 8,000 chips into the pot when he was only getting 2:1 odds with a Q4.
