I would have called for sure, see 1000$ antex 10 is 10000, 80000x5= 400000
This makes it 410000$ before the flop and it's A-9-3~ C. You bet 80000, which to me usually seem like a weak play (of course I'm wrong in this hand), and he goes all in. As someone mentioned you have a 1-3 chance if he has a made flush and there are 490000$ before his raise of 670000$ which puts the pot well over 1 million. 1m 160k to be exact. You will therefore win 390k with the 670k bet IF he has a flush. Now you are a slight underdog with the odds, IF the guy has you beat. Now you ask yourself, would he make the same play with a A-9, 9-9? I'd say yes, you made a weak play on the flop and he raised you to pick up the pot. (he might have put you on the king of clubs and therefore he didn't want you in the pot with him, even if he's the guy with the edge).
And you're the chip leader and can stand a hit. you'll still have about a million if you lose and you'll be in a comanding position for the rest of the tournament.
And if you win, you're almost certain to win.
I can't recall a time I didn't win the tournament if I got to the final table with the chiplead.  |
