Last night I had a .50/$1 NL ring open, A $20 SnG open and a $30 MTT going.
I was doing well in the SnG had the big stack and was playing the Bully. So most of my attention was on that game. The NL ring was just working on the bonus. In the MTT I was below average with around T1500. I was the big blind and posted T200 so now I have T1300. I am dealt 24 off so I hit the pre action button check/fold and go back to the SnG where I have just been dealt a large pair.
I look over and see the flop in the MTT. It looks like just the SB completed. The flop was A34. SB checks. I figure if he had an A he would have raised just to push me off the blind. I push all in. Figure I'll take his 200 and have T1700. I look back at my SnG and JJ called my KK and is all in. I glance back at the MTT and MP not only calls but he raises my all in. Where did he come from? Of course SB folds MP turns over A2off. A2off yeah he is a fish but after I turn over my monster 24off no one noticed his fishery. Yuck 2 outs for the pot and 4 outs for the split. I got no help and started playing just the SnG and the Rng.
I had been playing tight the first hour and this was just into the second hour. I bet everyone was thinking WTF 42 off?
