you played it fine just punch your TV and move on

[Eric Draven]

Okay, thanks, I was unsure of my Flop play.... Guess I did okay...

[NYCNative]

5d Kc?
Js 9s?

Meh. This is how people play at the 22s?

Hindsight: Raise more preflop with a premium hand. Better to simply win the blinds than to be faced with four callers and scary flops.

Yeah, I'm making it t100-t120 preflop.

Oddly enough, I found level 1-3 even easier in 20+2 than 5+.5 or 10+1, however bubble play is slightly harder.... I'm dropping back down to 10+1 (my bankroll wasn't nearly big enough to really play the 20+2's, I was just taking a shot), but now I know the play difference isn't a huge jump at all.


I now see that the raise should have been at LEAST 100, but likely even more (120 sounds about right in hindsight).
