Day 9

Only played 2 SnG's today. I bombed out of one playing a hand very foolishly that I knew was a mistake from the start, and the other one I won. There was a hand that came up in the SnG I won that made the other guy stay at the table for 10 minutes and berate my call. I am curious to see if anyone would advocate folding because I couldn't get my chips in fast enough.

He went nuts, never mind I was a 61% favorite as I knew he had 2 overcards, but I had 18 outs (the other three 4's, all the 5's, the other three 6's, and all the remaining diamonds (8) = 18 outs) After 15 outs you are more likely to hit then not hit. But he wouldn't listen. I am amazed at how bad some players are but refuse to believe anything else. Doesn't matter anyway, I took the first place money.

I understand what your saying, but I had a pretty good handle on his play and he had been doing the 'all in over the top bet' throughout and then showing 2 high cards, no draw, no pair. I also knew that with a 7 he flat calls my 600 bet on the flop. And even if he has a 3 my outs don't change. I agree he could have had an overpair, but he would have re-raised preflop, I also understand that he could have had a better flush draw, but I didnt read it that way.

Thanks for the post though! I am trying to go over hand histories after each SnG to look at my play and how to change it, any comments are helpful!
