Had a few hands come up in a recent $10+1 sit n go when the blinds were high. I ended up laying both of them down, but thought about going all in both times.
Hand 1: Blinds 75/150, 5 left.
Hero is UTG with t3000
Mr. Tight is UTG+1 with t3000
Short Stack is button with t1000
Mr. Tight has won 2 big pots, but hasn't played many other hands and certainly hasnt reraised pre-flop at all yet.
Short Stack is in desperation mode and just doubled up to get where he is at.
Hero is dealt A/images/graemlins/club.gif J/images/graemlins/club.gif and raises to t450
Mr. Tight raises to t1500
Hero folds
Hand 2: Blinds are 100/200, 4 left
Hero is UTG with t2600 (and short stack)
Mr. Tight is Button with t3000
Hero is deal 5/images/graemlins/club.gif 5/images/graemlins/heart.gif and raises to t600
Mr. Tight raises to t1800
Hero curses Mr. Tight and folds.
Should have I moved in with either of these two, given my reads? A friend thought I could have moved in on both, and the 55 hand was a sure push.
So, did I put too much emphasis on my reads? Hand 1 I was thinking AA-TT, AK. Hand 2 was middle pair (but bigger than 55) or AK/AQ.
