I had not been stealin much. I figured I wanted to take some blinds here to stay afloat. Thoughts, opinions, flames welcome and appreciated.

I am having trouble with UB's 22's but the 11's I am doing alright. 11% ROI or so over a sample of 140 or so. Pehaps I can not beat the 22's I do not know. Perhaps this play is my leak let me know. General advice on the UB 22's is welcome also.

Turn: (t250) J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)

River: (t250) 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 players)

Results in white below:

Outcome: Button wins .

Awful!!! 17x BB!!

If you want to play this hand, you can raise 3x BB and go from there. I probably open-fold.

Thanks,

Perhaps I found my leak.

On the bubble I tend to steal based upon timing more than anything. I do not want the blinds to cause me to sink. So once a round ON AVERAGE ! I steal. Sometimes with a 3BB bet sometimes with an ALL-IN.

I figure the other players will be looking for the money so they will tighten up enough for this to be a workable plan. Perhaps not.
