[pearljam]

Everything seemed fine, you lost all your 40/60s and ran into some hands, tough luck.

[J-Lo]

I feel all those moves are quite standard-- just some tough luck-- it hurts more when there is some jerk-ass taunting u.... but i like to have chat off.... All those moves are pretty standard for me, u just ran into bigger hand w/o sucking out.... get your luckbox fixed.

[Karak567]

Thanks guys. I had a feeling all of my moves were absolutely standard, however doubt started to set in right after the tourny as I was reviewing the HH. The only ones I was squabbling about at the time of the tourny were the calls of the short stack all ins, but I think they were ok.

I was starting to doubt myself, though, and thought I should get some input.

Appreciate it.

I maybe wouldn'tve pushed the 84o considering you've pushed a few recently and you've got someone accusing you of pushing too much. I'm probably wrong on this as nobody else said anything.

[Freudian]

I am not sure I would push the last hand. It seems that if you lose a big hand and push the next one people assume you are on tilt and you won't have much FE.

I am also not sure I would call with the 92s from BB. Losing an extra 500 here somewhat bad (even though you are getting a good price on your call) and also since you are in so many hands as it is, you have to fold here and there for your FE to not to go down too much. When I am very comfortable with the size of my stack I can let hands like this one go, partly because I don't want the other guy to double up and partly as somewhat of an image play. But it is hard to know if this is such a spot since it becomes much easier when you actually play the tourney.

Will offer my thoughts...

Really the hand that I thought brought you down hard was the loss to the A7 against your A6. I think your play was alright by going all in, but the table has just seen you do that a whole bunch of times...of course a shorter stack is going to gamble with you there with many many different types of hands. I thought you could have completed the SB to see what the BB was going to do, either check or raise you...from there you could have decided what to do with the A6 (the hand would probably have ended up the same anyway tho). I only say this because I think with the chip lead like that, and the blinds getting so high, that maintenance or preservation of the lead is more important to cashing, rather than trying to pick up some more with the all in move...the reason i say this is because the other players will soon "starve" for chips with the high blinds, and they will start going all in with mediocre cards, whether or not you push. I like to sit back and simply defend my blinds in these situations, trying to force someone into a misplayed hand from a bad position.
I didn't think your stack was big enough to gamble with without a really solid hand (my opinion here, A8 or above), and you knew that the player was going to gamble with any two reasonable cards (I might have called with just suited connectors against a player like you who won't let me see the flop at all...better than being blinded out).
So, in short, I thought your previous plays made the table feel like they HAD to gamble (because they feel like you would simply steal everything if they didn't) which should have been a good time for you to sit back a little and wait for a solid hand to push in with again...
Again, I totally understand your play, just trying to play devil's advocate and letting you know that any two reasonable cards could have called you there (rather than fold to the apparent "all in maniac" with high blinds and an ever shortening stack)
I didn't think your last all in was necessary either, although understood as well...(although notice that getting away from the A6 at a cheap loss makes the K3 a very easy fold, and the A10 simply picks up the blinds or goes gambling with the "vagisil" player...
P.S. please keep in mind that I am a rather tight player.

Let me know if you have problems with my comments...always trying to improve my game as well...

[tigerite]

All fine except perhaps hand #2. Not sure you need to be pushing that and it's 5-handed.

This is nearly exactly what I was thinking after I finished reading the HH.

[tigerite]

Yes, the last hand isn't great either, to be honest. Hand 2 I believe is -EV with the situation as it is.
