This blog is going to be different from the others I have written in the past and the idea was suggested by a member of this forum. My database of Poker Tracker 3 has been searched through and a hand has been picked
out for members to inspect. The difference in the blog to others is that you will be given the bare amount of information regarding the hand, i.e. no hands displayed in the images, no thought process during the hand, hands
may not have been played by me but observed at the table. The aim is to hopefully encourage more interaction from the community so read the blog which will show a hand played from pre-flop to the river and you simply
have to work out what hands the players involved hold, well I say "simply" but it depends on your hand reading ability.
Pretty early on in a tournament, blinds at 15/30 and 9 players at the table. UTG limps, this player is a fish, limping in to too many pots, rarely raising pre-flop and very passive post-flop. Action folds to MP1 who also limps,
calling station is the label for this guy, tighter than UTG, still classed as passive on pre-flop but isn't afraid to raise and does so more than UTG. More aggressive post flop as well but not much and still classed as passive.
The other players fold and the Button raises to 150, this player is tight doesn't play too many hands, a slightly loose raiser pre-flop and very aggressive post-flop but no overly aggressive. The blinds fold, UTG calls and MP1
comes along for the ride as well.
Flop comes down 8s 9s Qd, UTG and MP1 check to the pre-flop raiser on the Button, The Button leads out in to the pot with a 300 bet in to a 495 pot, UTG calls and MP1 min raises with a 600 bet and Button calls as well MP1.
Turn delivers 7s, UTG checks again, MP1 shoves all-in (2180), Button shoves all-in (3280) and UTG calls putting in their last 1248 in the pot.
Finally the river completes the board with 3h.
Who won the hand and what did the players hold, post your thoughts. It doesn't matter if you are wrong it is just a bit of fun, also be respectful of other people's post so no insulting people. Play nice!
I will post who won and what the players held in a few days so gives you guys a chance to post your thoughts.
Once I have posted the player's hands and who won then I would like you to then analyse the hand and would like to know how you would have approached the hand.
Just remember it is just for fun so have a go.
See you at the tables.
