Good job Switchman12


Another student shows some promise...

We just started with switchman12, but I see he is doing pretty good himself.
I was watching the 10K GTD tonight and he was absolutely dominating the tourney up until final table.
However, there were couple questionable plays, especially one which cut his stack almost in half with overplaying AK.
But he did good job and finished 3rd cashing in 1 K. What sucks most, there were couple key hands what would of changed his payout.
One of them was when with 3 players left in the tourney both opponents went all in. The deeper stack had AQ and shorter flipped A4. It seemed switchman12 was heading to HU, until miracle river 4. What a heart breaker. That would of guaranteed 2K and shot at 1 K Extra.

And the main hand would of put him to HU again and with dominating 3-1 stack, when switchman12 raised on button and BB reshoved. Players flipped their cards and BB showed KJ against Switchmans AQ. Flop all rags didnt change situation, just got closer to heads up match, but Turn hit J. River 10 didnt help and stack was cut really bad. Last hand A10 vs AJ didnt improve and he had to take only 1K home.

Only a few tough suckouts and the 2 K difference.

Oh well, that's poker. I'm just happy the stacks were pushed in the middle with the best hand when it mattered.

Maybe next time, switchman !
