I just finished the night owl $1.10 tournament on carbon. Its a $50 guarentee tournament with rebuys. When I started the tournament I think there was 30 participants still in the tournament and I actually finished in 25th place so my results weren't that great and right now at 1:51 am there is still time for late registration/re-entry into the tournament.
So my last hand is what you want to know about. Preflop the opponent under the gun minimum raised. I think there was an opponent between us who folded. I had ace king offsuite in middle position and I reraised pretty big, 5 or six big blinds I think. It folded back around to the original raiser who re-raised all in. I reasoned that this opponent would of open much bigger if they had something bigger than me and the caluculater that carbon poker provides for you said that I had the right pot odds to call so that is what I did.
I caught an ace on the flop but then my opponent made his set on the turn or fourth street.
Preflop after my opponent's initial raise I think I should of just called or maybe minimum re-raise.
After my opponent re-raised I had ten big blinds left at that point and I wished I would of just folded at that point because I would of had enough chips to had a chance in the tournament.
So what did I learn today?
Don't re-raise someone in early position and I really don't like ace-king offsuite.
