The beat that really hurt |
|
Quick one. Got my aces cracked way in the beginning of the WBCOOP 'qualifier' ... The worst thing is it was a Holdem qualifier, where I figured my best chances are.. AND I misplayed the aces a little bit ... 
Trying to get value I raise to 2.5x from mp, get 2 callers... the flop comes J92 and I bet half the pot (a tiny bet compared to the stacks). 1 guy calls and the turn was a 10, I bet half the pot again and he minraises me ... I think for a second 'if he has KQ this is a really sick beat', still I hope he has like AJ or A10 or something and I can check call the river. The river is a blank, I check and he goes all-in (slightly more then pot at this point...). I thought about it, but since we only played a few hands I had no read on him yet ... it's a freeroll so I'm expecting a lot of bad play (the omaha one was a laugh, even I came close to qualifying in that one and I thought I sucked at omaha ! If I win the pot chances are HUGE that I will qualify, so I call and he shows me the sick KQ to crack and snap me. That hurt. 2 more chances at a Holdem qualifier this week ....
