Re: 8-8 hand - I suck at tournaments

how did you read that he only had two big cards? wouldn't he have played 99-AA the same way? Aren't you risking a lot of chips. I think you should have re-raised preflop (pot size plus 33%), then you would have a better idea where he stood. He would probably call (or possibly fold) with KQ, but he would have re-re-raised with AA, KK, or AK.

reraising pf like you suggest would have put more than half his chips in. that's a lot to commit just for information. i think the pf play was decent, but on the flop he's in a pickle. i think on the flop he's either got to lead out with a pot-sized bet, or check-fold. this is a dangerous hand because he's out of position and his opponent has a lot of chips in the pot.
