*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to FR Vessant [6s 6h]
rbaccin: folds
pokersam60: raises 30 to 60
Has raised a ton. He minraised J9 earlier in the game.
DrBLovemore: folds
roadmasterh: folds
Scratch14: folds
FR Vessant: calls 45
So I call for set value.
Steve1107: folds
*** FLOP *** [Qd 5h Ts]
He probably didn't hit that.
FR Vessant: checks
pokersam60: bets 30
FR Vessant: calls 30
So I'll call the minbet and see what he does on the turn.
*** TURN *** [Qd 5h Ts] [6d]
There's my set.
FR Vessant: checks
pokersam60: bets 30
FR Vessant: raises 60 to 90
pokersam60: calls 60
That raise is far too small. My problem is that I put him on absolutely nothing, so don't expect him to call a decent raise. But you should play for the long run and bet what will on average be best. This wasn't it.
*** RIVER *** [Qd 5h Ts 6d] [Kh]
FR Vessant: bets 120
So I make a value bet on the river.
pokersam60: raises 665 to 785 and is all-in
I don't believe he has a hand good enough to beat me. He probably has a king here.
FR Vessant: calls 665
*** SHOW DOWN ***
pokersam60: shows [Jh Ac] (a straight, Ten to Ace)
Fuck. Well, he probably wasn't folding for any money on the turn.
Here's my bustout hand. I post it because it illustrates an interesting point.

Just curious. You're playing for money, now, right? But does saying that you have 1930 in chips translate directly into dollars?
It only does in a virtual sense. There are prizes at the end of the tournament, depending on which position you're knocked out in. The chips you have give you a stake in those prizes, which varies depending on how many chips you have, and how many the other players have.
