Re: Resteal by a solid opponent
Well my point is that chips are precious in a SNG. If you've got em, there is no reason to call off half of them when you are at BEST a slight dog. If you are calling off 1/4 of your stack here, then...

Re: Resteal by a solid opponent
SNGs are way to fast to be blowing half of your stack on a call like this. You are a dog to any pair and any Ace. Just get rid of it. You are not desperate, just fold and be done with it.

Re: $10 party rebuy
raise to about 3-4k If he doesn't fold be very guarded. If he raises, you're gonna have a tough decision, but what can you really beat? Your a dog to any pair especially 10s and better.

Re: Opinions on this satellite bubble push
I don't have an opinion on the push YET. With the A-9 you need to ask yourself "do I need to play this hand?" There is one player in the pot and he raised, you have about 25 BB left, your 2 away from...
