Was down near San Diego and heard about some juicy action at one of the local joints. Didn't have shit to do today so figured why not.
Oceans 11 daily morning tourney. $35 buy, in 1 $20 rebuy allowed, 2.5k guaranteed, top 10 paid.
Happy to come in 15 minutes late and see only 4 tables, 40 players, going. Always love an overlay! Sit down to a table of elderly folk who seem to love calling any 2 and gambling. See a few hands bet and called down with second pair and such and every raise was called preflop by at least 5. Not even one orbit in this hand happens...
blinds 25-50 stacks all within 300 of 4000
Hero UTG AhQh raise to 150.
Villain 1 raise to 300
villain 2 calls 300
villain 3 button call 300
SB calls 300
BB calls 300
Hero calls 150
FLOP: 3h 8h 5c
SB bets 1500 (pot sized)
BB calls 1500
Hero ???
this pot is huge compared to the blinds already and there is a chance there will be calls after you. If you win the pot there is a very good probability you final table and get paid because of the relative strength of the field and the fact 10 out of 40 were cashing.
