This Is Bugging me, HELP!!
I just got back from the ACPG tourney at Ballys. OK I do not know if I played this bad or not. I keep running it over and over.
Blinds 500-1k
Antes 200
9 people at table
I am on Small Blind. (500) Chip Stack very low 7,800
Under the gun calls, and (Hero) late position calls. I look down at 5-6 off. There is 5300 in pot. I call 500. Big blind checks his option.
Flop= 965 I check table checks behind.
Turn= A I push all in knowing someone had to get in with an (A) and they will call my all in.
BB folds, Middle folds. (Hero) Late position Calls with A-Q
River =9
He wins with top two.
OK I knew I had the best hand on the flop. Even though there is a str8ght draw on board I check hoping one of the 3 people bet so that I can re-raise all in. My thinking is if I go all in on flop I win a 4,800 profit but I am still left low stack with about 2 orbits to get lucky again. If I check raise I double up and I have survival money to be a little patient. Well as u see for getting greedy I risked it all and ended up with bad beat. I don’t blame hero for his call. He had top pair with top kicker. He had 8 outs to beat my two pair and he hit. Did I play this wrong?

I agree with you. But at the time a push all in would of got me nothing. But I guess the end result was the same. I GOT NOTHING. Next time I wont get greedy and take the pot down there.

I don't wanna beat a dead horse but I agree, you NEVER slow play bottom two. Worse case you open shove and you take down a small pot and you're still in the tourney.

Shove the flop, your short stacked and depending on the other stacks at the table its not unlikely that your get a call. Worst case you take it down right there which puts you back up to 13 big blinds which gives you room to hopefully see a better spot to get it all in.
