You're a Bunch of Factors

The other night, there were 10 players left, blinds are 1000-2000, i have 5K but 2 of that is in for BB.

UTG with a substantial stack raises to 5K.
Everyone folds round to the SB, who calls 5K of his 6K stack.

This makes 12K in the pot, and to call i have to put another 3K in, putting me all in.

UTG is a loose-agressive player, probably not one of the best players around, but by no means the worst. (i wont name him here)

SB was Russell Minett - very good player - top 5 in the region for sure.

I look down at my cards and see

WHAT WOULD YOU DO IN THIS SITUATION? Vote in the poll above before you see what i did.

You had a flush draw on the river??
Or on the turn?

All in is the call. Even against AA you are only a 4.5 to 1 dog preflop.
You just gotta hope that noone else has an out of yours in the hole.

I know, you said river though - and I was thinking "Hmmm does benny the cunt know there's only five community cards??"

benny the cunt : "HEY Where's the second river??? I have a flush draw!!"
Someone else : "The second river went out with the second break, that's why you didn't see it"
Other people " *laughter*

Just kidding mate

yeah good point. i was pretty sure that neither of them had 66 or 77, and the first player MAY have raised with A6 or A7, but chances are they wouldn't. so i thought my cards were fresh and decided to gamble.

i know a lot of people that would have folded their way to FT though

if it was AK, then it would have read THE worst player around

i meant that with the river to come, i had a flush draw
