Hand from EPM sat

    blinds are 100/200 I've got 4200 and haven't yet used my re buy. 4 or 5 limper's including me with 77, flop comes As 7s 3s, sb who has 1600 chips bets out 500 and I'm pretty sure he has hit the flush for the simpler reason that he has already hit about three flushes( which he referred to when showing his hands, I have a blue).


    Utg limper then pushes his remaining stack of about 3.5k in, elderly gent who Dave masters has told me is a rock and the only hand i seen him play was when he had to re-buy after getting aces busted. My move?

    Fold...
    Lots of outs but so does MrOld McTighty, with his pocket Aces !

    bate it in there and ensure you pair the board on the river

    if the tighty gent you are talking about is Harold(wars Glasses and usually very quit at the table ) then i would fold this.he has either got AA or a flush or 33 and your not doing good against that range.
    if you call your not making a mistake either though.
    this would be a super though fold and any one else but Harold i would call here .

    im guessing you called and knocked out the elderly gent (Im guessing its Harold) but lost the main pot.

    if he has pocket aces, what's with the 4/5 limpers?

    does not compute

    you are right didnt notice the limpers.unless he was first to limp but he is not usually tricky.
    his range is AxKs,33, or any made flush .i can safely say Harold's range for pushing there is not much wider.

    I was at the table for this hand. Harold was indeed the gent in question. He had just used his rebuy when his aces got cracked by AK. He used his patented limp UTG and then reraised all-in, called by AhKh and the flop came xhxhxh and that was that.

    The hand Nicky is talkin about is only the 4th or 5th hand Harold played.

    With an all-in and Harold in the hand, I think this is a fold. Harold has a flush or a set here 95% of the time, so you're crippled against his range.

    Harold probably has both. At least.

    Tough spot. As someone else says, anyone else but Harold this would be a call given the pot size. I would probably call though and get on the knees for the board to come running 6's.

    My falling asleep on the couch at about 7.30 last night ensured that I wouldn't be down for this which is a pity cause I wanted to play it.

    Call. Harold never moves all in without the nuts. AA is not the nuts anymore. They both have flushes so call and pair the board.

    I figured maybe then same, the guy who was hitting the blues had 8s 2s and Harold Ad ks(guess he must of been on tilt) an A on the turn got the pot for me however i think the deciding factor was the fact I hadn't used my re-buy. I probably don't call here in a larger buy-in freezeout

    I think you should call regardless of whether its a freezeout or not.

    How does this Harold charachter actually get knocked out of tournaments?

    Blinds away while waiting for the rockets.

    There is an unconfirmed rumour that LuckyLloyd is Harold's son, but as I say, it's just a rumour.

    Ive had the pleasure of knocking him off the final table on 3 different occasions.... the problem with this is i was so delighted with having knocked him out i think i ended up donking away my chips on one of those occasions.

    Harold is ridiculously bad, he will actually ante himself to about 1.5bb before putting them in lol so easy to play against.

    Harold made the final table of the PP tourney in the SE last december with exactly one big blind left to his name and he won it for a nice payday.

    every now and then the deck will hit these type of players in the face and they may win something but for players range to be so tight for ppl to actually advocate folding a set to his push is really bad.
    ive played with Harold plenty and i have to say he is prob the only player ive seen where i can play him with out looking at my cards and actually beat him.
