(10) party AKo

[LALDAAS]

I just made to move to party and still getting use to the structure.

Starting staacks are low and blinds
increase quickly.

I am hitting the bouble enough that I am starting to get the fell for it but playing tight the blinds killin me. Leaving me short stacked on the bouble.

How luka05 lost 300 chips is vital to my decision here.

[LALDAAS]

bah I am at work right now I will have to look it up when I get home.

From what I remember last night chips were flying all over the place throught out all levels.

iirc I took second on this one /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I had felt if I had played this had, I would have had to play for the whole stack

I played with luka05 in the 11r last night and ended up noting him as a tight, but not too aggressive player. I'd figure his hand to be TT+, AK. FWIW, he 4-tables the 11r (not that it indicates a whole lot). I'd probably wait for a better spot but maybe my range I put him on is too narrow. Did you (OP) notice the 11's to be unusually tight last night? I played in 2 where there were 7 people remaining in level 7. Another one I played the bubble didn't bust until the blinds were 200/400. I realize that may be the norm in the higher buy-in SnG's, but it is highly uncharacteristic of the 11's in my experience.

Meh.

It was hit or miss. Some seemed a little tight, So were simply rediculous. I played about 20 last night 3 or 4 of them I was on the bouble before I even really played a hand.
