Ask any group of poker players the way you played your hand and they’ll get a hold of dozens of various opinions. That’s just the character of the game.

Each week, Card Player will select a hand from the high-stakes, big buy-in poker world, break it down and show that there’s multiple solution to get the job done.

The Scenario

There are eight players remaining out of an important field of greater than 21,000, so it’s safe to mention you're already within the money. In your $565 investment, you're already guaranteed $118,937. However, there's $1 million up for grabs for the winner of the event.

With 18,150,000 in chips, you might be currently in second place overall. The blinds are actually 250,000-500,000 with a 50,000 ante, providing you with 36 big blinds to work with. There are currently a few short stacks on the table hovering around 10 big blinds.

From under the gun, you look down at AJ and choose to lift to 1,000,000. The action fold around to a player in late position with 10,850,000, and he reraises to 2,200,000.

You think it over for slightly before calling and the flop comes down 743. You check, and your opponent bets 1,600,000. He has 7,000,000 in chips behind.

The Questions

Do you call, raise or fold? If calling, what's your plan for the turn? If raising, how much? Do you're thinking that you're ahead or behind? If behind, what number of outs are you able to anticipate? If ahead, how do you extract maximum value? How much does the highest heavy payout influence your decision?

What Actually Happened

In the 2016 World Series of Poker Colossus event, Ben Keeline opted to lift all in holding AJ on a flop of 743.

His opponent, Christopher Renaudette, goes into the tank for several minutes before eventually folding pocket tens. Because it turns out, Keeline’s two over cards and flush draw was a 55 percent favorite to win the pot, but Renaudette still will need to have called together with his pocket tens given his equity and the pot size.

Renaudette hung on long enough to secure a sixth-place finish, earning $201,151. Keeline took the pot and rode that momentum to the title, a bracelet and the $1 million first-place prize.
