That does suck arse Bill, but that's why I hate mtts. You can play perfect poker for 5 hours and then some nob makes a thin call and sucks out leaving you with nothing.

He played it ok preflop, though a lot of people would have shoved all-in in his position. Would you have called that? On the flop, the way it's played, he's probably put you on a draw - flush and/or straight - which even then would be a straight race or a total bluff. He's made a very marginal call. I would have shoved preflop/folded flop in his position.

You were a 85% favourite when all the money went in, but obviously 15% of the time, the bad call sucks out. Unlucky.

I stick to cash games, where you get the chance to win the money back from the idiots.

Good points there Heat. I was surprised he didn't push all in preflop either. To answer your question, no, if he had pushed all in, I would NOT have called at that juncture of the tournament. I still had about 10 big blinds left and wasn't under any pressure at that point to play. I would have been borderline in the money had I not played but no guarantee there.

Funny too as during the 200 plus hands I had played, I never once hit a set when I had a low pocket pair yet had two people hit theirs against me. Typical.
