Blinds 100/200 ante 25

my stack: 7k
villain: 5k

Got A8off on BTN, bet 500 and get called by SB.

Flop: 579 rainbow

SB bets 1k in 1,4k pot i push all-in. What you do you think about my play? I thought that she donks to me to know where she is. I put her on a draw, 7x, 5x... I have FE and 7 clear outs (gutshot outs and aces) if i get called but of course i dont want her to call me.

Its ok to play like me in district tournament, where only few players know how to play poker? Or i should fold and wait for better spot?

usual at this kind of tour where only few players know how to play poker they bet out made hands never draws so i put her here on 9x, 78 76, 2 pairs, set, floped str8 or maybe even TT, JJ, 88, T8
u dont got FE here couse only few players know how to play poker she likes her hand, she bet out, and imo she is not folding here so call, if u dont hit 6 or A on turn fold if she bets again, and wait for better spot

Yeah, you are right and i think the best play here is to just fold it on the flop...

She calls me and shows A9off (i dont like it very much!) and holdem. :evil:

no i dont think fold on folp is best play in this kind of turneys, just call and if u hit 6 and catch str8 ull win nice pot. or u can steal this pot too if scary card like K,Q came and is it check to u think like 10-20sec and than shove, beleve me this playworks with those players.
they think that u raise pre flop with pockets, aq ak kq type of hands and if the show weakness u might steal from them if that spot if they got only a pair they usulay think and fold face up to show how smart they are ;).
p.s. dont show ur bluff u want to use that move again

Maybe youre right...

PS I never show my cards :P


i would just call the flop bet and go broke if i hit A or straight on the turn.
if i dont improve on the turn i fold to another big bet.
i dont htink you have much FE here against this stack and against this donk.
but shoving is not horrible here you might make him fold any pair because you played it very stronng.
and if you get called you have some equity as well.
but hmmmmm in live tourneys with all that donkeys i just call :)
