I'm guessing you bet the flop because the pot is huge.

So my guess would be:
You fold.
Jr has 77c
Rovit1 Ac5c

2 points for correct answer = fold
0 points for Jr hand = TT
0 points for Rovit1 hand = 77

Total 2 points

As a good friend of ours would claim, Twos Never Lose.

So if I understood the action right:

Really would have loved to know what pf action was...
Flop: Rovit1 bets, you call and JrMeteris calls
Turn: Rovit1 checks, you bet, JrMeteris shoves, and Rovit1 shoves

Answer:
:diamond:You called but wished you folded... :f_tongue:
:diamond:JrMeteris has 72 and can't believe how often this hand wins
:diamond:Rovit1 has 53 and loves defending his blinds with any 2 cards and hitting draws on the flop

0 points for correct action = Fold
0 points for Jr hand = TT
0 points for Rovit1 hand = 77

0 points for Rovit1 hand = 77

Hey bud, nice to see you!

I think in a deep structured tournament like this and in the way the hand is played its a fairly straightforward fold.

Probably would have called Jr but once the second shove happens it screams set all day long.

The irony of it all is we make a good fold and 2 hours later we knock Rovit1 out for a $10 bounty

We did exit with KK losing to AQ on the turn when ITM.

Hope you and the family are well.

That KK spot is one where cbetting flop itself is bit dangerous action to take. Especially BB range has huge advantage on nutty hands part. So it's very plausible spot to take aggressive line with fair amount of semibluff combos on flop which put our range in tough spot. This is even more so in reality as BB very often has no donk betting range.

Anyway main reason why I chose call was because everyone else chose fold so probably better EV to go other direction πŸ˜‰

Will have another session tomorrow evening and play some big field MTTs and try to get a stack through for the $22 WCOOP Phase.

WCOOP Events:

20:30 / $22 / WCOOP 01-M [Phase 1] / $1M Gtd
22:05 / $5.50 / WCOOP 66-L [PKO Freezeout, Mini Sunday Cooldown] / $50K Gtd

Side events:

19:00 / $11 / Sunday Storm [2 Day Event] / $125K Gtd
19:00 / $11 / Bigger $11 / $25K Gtd
20:15 / $22 / Hotter $22 [Progressive KO] / $50K Gtd
20:30 / $7.50 / Bounty Builder / $35K Gtd
20:45 / $5.50 / Progressive KO. Short: 15BB / $4K Gtd
21:15 / $4.40 / Hotter $4.40 [Progressive KO] / $10K Gtd
21:45 / $11 / Time KO: 60 Minutes / $1.5K Gtd
22:15 / $7.50 / Hotter $7.50 [Progressive KO] / $15K Gtd
22:45 / $5.50 / Time KO: 60 Minutes / $500 Gtd

Such a variance heavy schedule but I'm just not the guy to sit down and play 100 hours to ITM poker. Has to be fast and furious for me

Probably will play for a few more Sunday's until I eventually get sick of the game once more and take another 6 month hiatus or something. Nothing wrong with a little punt every now and again to cleanse the soul!

Have played a few Time KOs during the week during my lunch break and have cashed in more than not, so I find them very attractive but there's only 3 of them per day which is crazy and only 3 of the 15BB short PKOs as well.

So a little more info on last night's session.

It's always a good Sunday when you end in profit, especially considering it's maybe the 4th Sunday I've played all year.

Finished 41st in the Hotter $7.50 after winning the most insane cooler hand ever

BvB I open shove AQo versus the BB who I cover but has a $22 bounty.

Nice to be on the fortunate side of things. Shortly after lost AK < AT, doubled back up when JJ held vs TT.

Eventually blinded down and lost a 4 way pot with QJ for my last 9BBs, had 2 players covered and was worth $40 more in booties. Had decent equity but did not get there.

Had a decent run in the Bounty Builder $7.50 as well until it went sour with TPTK getting runner runnered in back to back hands.

Some mincashes in other big fields like the Big $11 added some small padding on the profit!

Haha crushing it certainly not, nor do I expect to be.

My edge or perceived edge went out the window many years ago, it's all for shits and giggles now!

And that's the way it should be really.
If you're not having fun, you're in the wrong game.

Will also take part in their community bounty event featuring Barry Carter and may others. It almost brought me out of retirement in August but since I've made a comeback and free tomorrow evening I'll be giving it a crack!
