On the turn is where it got scary. "Thomasis" bet of $15 was a strong bet obviously to protect his set of queens. This is where I really did the thinking. No "good" holdem player would make such a strong bet on the turn IF he had a full house. He would only bet strong to chase away any draws. So I knew my straight was good even after the turn. The river was a 3rd diamond, but I was not worried about a flush because he obviously had a queen, and the queen of diamonds was on the flop. To my suprise he moves all in. I used my logic and reasoning to put him on KQ or AQ, everything seemed to make sense. I made the call, which I know some of you wouldn't and took it all down. All my studying and thinking and hourse I have logged helped in this situation and I am just extremely proud of myself for the play Please toss me some comments/suggestions -Murs |

Only thing I would have been afraid of was the full house. But if why not raise it like a min. raise of $3 more on the flop? Only things that could have beaten you were a full boat, a flush or higher straight. But seems that you had a read against him you played it very well. nice pot |

It's dangerous practice to slowplay the nut straight into 3 other people. Other than that I don't mind it. I would have liked to see a raise on the turn though. He's demonstrated that he's got a monster and if he was a little bit more cognitive he coulda sniffed out your monster. (a big flat call?!) A raise would have better masked and protected your hand. -'rilla |

 Yes, I brought a knife to this gunfight, just the other day I mugged a mountain. So bring that shit, I've had practice.

I personally probably would have raised the $3 flop bet. Allowing all of those other players to see the turn card could have burned you if a diamond came on turn. With 3 other players seeing the turn card it is very likely that at least 1 of them is on a flush draw. Luckily it didn't come on the turn and your opponent led out with a big bet, which probably chased the flush draws away for you. Even still I probably would have reraised his $15 turn bet just cause I like to be the aggressor if I have a vunerable made hand. Only potential problem I see is if the trip kings were checked on the turn and both of the other(potential flush draws) checked to you I hope you would have led out with a big enough bet to destroy there pot odds. Don't want to slow play yourself into the losing hand. A check by you at that point could and probably would have been disastrous, with 3 other players seeing the river card you would have to lay down your str8 with a flush now on the board if the betting had gotten heavy. Well thats my take, NH |

|
| Online poker tournaments fell off ever so slightly the past weekend, with tournament entries and prize pools finally seeing a drop after February's FTOPS and Billion Dollar Hand promotions. Fortunately this week saw a lot less chip-chops and more final table action. There were also some great final tables with a lot of recognizable faces including some of the best online tournament players in the world. The day started off with the Sunday Warm-Up which had been surpassing the $1,000,000 prize pool mark as of late. While the tournament could not quite reach the seven-figure mark, it did remain in the #2 [...] | |
