Tournament Hand of the Week Submission Thread: Chosen hands get 5 VIP Chips!

[Tammy]

We are starting up a "Hand of the Week" (HOTW) series for members. There will be both a Cash Game and Tournament HOTW each week (link to Cash Game Hand of the Week will be linked below). We want you to post the hand(s) that gave you the most trouble that you could really use some advice on. Each week, we will choose one hand from the thread and post here in the Tournament Hand Analysis forum for members to critique and give advice. Anyone who's hand is picked will get 5 VIP Chips*.

How to Submit Your Hand
This thread is for tournament hands only. We have a separate thread for Cash Game Hand of the Week here.

1. Copy and paste your full, raw data hand history (show results). We will be inputting chosen hands into our CardsChat Hand Converter, so we need the full, raw hand history.
2. Give some background of the hand. Share your thoughts and concerns about the hand, and ask the questions you would like to receive advice for. Include any other data like VPIP, player reads/history, etc.

Please do NOT discuss hands or give advice on play in this thread! This thread is for submission only. We will post links to HOTW threads here as they go up, and members to whom the hand belonged will be tagged in the post. You can use the URL of that post to make a claim in your VIP thread.

*VIP Chips can be used to enter VIP specific tournaments or saved up to purchase exclusive CardsChat merch. For more info about our VIP Program, check out our VIP Program Guide.

This hand gave me a challenge on the river, even though i won this hand, my concern was about a possible full house on the board. What should i have done differently, and was my raise on the turn appropriate?

At the showdown i laughed at this hand since its @Martin favourite hand he told us about 🙂

Its NLO8... how to defend low-stacked BB with a nice hand from a big stack? Is AI the only way?

FT is a table away. Would you fold JJ?

Tricky hand, Royal Flush draw, against an over aggressive player
Played the entire hand passively, how should i have played this hand preflop and postflop from small blind position?

 

[Tammy]

It's been a wild week! Keep those entries coming - I promise I will choose one in the next few days.

Hi Tammy. I have a hand that gave me some trouble today but I played it on mobile, so no raw hand history.

Would it be eligible to be chosen if I format it in a readable way or not? Just let me know.

Yes! We can zhuzh it up a bit.

I am wondering if it would make sense to add hands into the discussion thread as well and link them here in case someone also wants to discuss the hand?

 

[Andyreas]

Ok, here goes the hand:
We're ITM (16 left) in a small $22 tournament with 20 places paid. Pay jumps aren't relevant until top 10.

Hero (28 BBs) sits in MP and receives AdTc. Folds to him, he opens 2 BBs. Folds to BB (48 BBs) who calls. No reads on villian so far. Hasn't played many hands.

Flop (5.5 BBs): 8sAc7d
BB checks
Hero bets 1.5 BBs.
BB raises to 5 BBs.
Hero?

Spoiler: My thoughts

I am smelling two pair but it could also be a bluff and I think I cannot fold TP here; even if my kicker isn't great.
While we can expect some 3-bets pre from AQ/AK but nits sometimes don't do that.

Hero calls.

Turn (15.5 BBs): 6h.
BB donks 3.9 BBs
Hero?

Spoiler: More thoughts

Somehow this small bet is weird to me. JT got there and I'm still behind any two pair combo.
At least no flush draws.
But I think my hand is too weak for a raise and I doubt I have fold equity.
Maybe he exactly intends to make me call with this small bet but can I fold here?

Hero calls.

River (23.2 BBs): 3h
BB donks full pot
Hero?

Spoiler: My thoughts

Unfortunately he didn't check and My hand didn't improve (as expected) and I think I have to fold here and live on with my 17 BBs left.
Of course I might have been bluffed by a triple barrel but that's okay.

Hero folds.

Spoiler: More info on villain

I later looked him up on SharkScope and he's a winning player with a decent ROI.

Yes, I will be linking them here when they are used.

I am speechless at the way villain called my turn and river bluff with AJ
This hand was played on silver monthly freeroll and it was a final table.

Was my preflop 3bet okay?
How about the rest of the hand?

Hi Tammy, I have submitted my hands, one on Dec 15 and the other on the next day, and I havent heared from this thread since Oct 17, Im wondering whether its worth my effort to continue with hand submissions or due to a lack of interest by the members you seem not to choose a HOTW

I was hoping for more participation. I will likely be discontinuing this promo. However, before the end of day tomorrow I will go through and chose a hand from you - I appreciate that you tried to get this going.

To assist - here is Martins cooler from tonights league game for tournament hand of the week, a 3 way killer with AA V KK V QQ.

 

[Antonio777]

I would like to see if anyone thinks an ALL IN after the flop could of changed the outcome. Get the other player to fold? I think theres a 50/50 chance either way.

I soft bet after the flop, 200 to keep from running him out and keep chips coming in, after the turn card i went up and doubled to 400 to see if he was confident in his hand or fold. To my horror he pushed me ALL IN, . Made me kinda sick cause looking at a straight or flush draw.
