Re: What the hell am I doing wrong?
I'm surprised about how you guys emphasize the strength of these hands (AT, QT, A2). Like Nate, though, I'm very new, and I have the same issue with coming close to the money but bubbling out more often than I think I should (sometimes even if I have a decent size stack). I think I'm certainly picking the wrong spots to steal/move-in, but it sounds like I'm way too tight as well. How low can you go with these hands (say, from the button if it's folded to you): 89? J8? Qx? Kx? Ax? (Just lost w/ A4s to A7o) I keep finding myself at really tight tables (on the 5+1s oddly enough) where everyone seems to be doing what I'm doing and waiting for the money, getting blinded down, making a stand and start waiting again. Against these kinds of opponents, what hands am I pushing/folding (again, from late position when I have 10-15 BB). And, am I just avoiding the really loose players?
Looks like Dr. Jeckyl just posted a reply that covers it; nm.
