This may seem basic to some folks but I’m a pretty new player so would appreciate thoughts about the play. It was also a pretty entertaining hand.
Background - T10k home tournament with blind structure designed to last 3 to 3.5 hours. Low buy-in ($30). 18 guys. Pay top 4. Not a good player in the bunch but we like to get together and drink a few beers once a month. No hot dog roller yet but you guys me half convinced I need to buy one. 2 hours in. 12 guys left so we are playing 6 handed. Blinds at 600-1200 with 6 minutes to next blind level. No antes in this tournament. Blinds will quickly start driving some serious action. Table is tight passive. A re-raise often means the nuts. Most players are fit or fold.
