Thanks for clarifying that... and now it seems like a 1st or third situation, which would make it read dependant to me... Good thought provoking post!

Thought-provoking posts SUCK. It means I actually had to do an ounce of thinking which is the last thing I want to do when playing SNGs.

Re: The hand where kyro wears a skirt
 

Nah son because I get those blinds back by being properly maniacal in late positions. I may push as weak as 77 here or AJ but that's the absolute line. 1300 chips is not desperate here at all.

Outright or BCS bid? If it's outright, I won't take it because too many things need to happen. If it's just the BCS bid, I'll put some money, but not $200. I shouldn't even be playing the $55s with my meager BR as it is [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

lol... still finding my way to the robotic multi table mode, for now, it helps people like me.. thanks

Re: The hand where kyro wears a skirt
 

It's not desperate by any means, but your original range was <10% of starting hands. In his position, I gotta think I'm pushing A7+/KJ+/66+.

But I am rusty and haven't played for a while. I just think that if you're getting top hands, you need to go with them.

I have to hit the hay so if I don't answer any direct questions in this thread, sorry!

I AM UTG
 

To spice this up a little(or maybe not)

UTG's range is

44+
A5s+
KJs+
QJs+

Reasons: Have only played 2 hands in the whole tournament so far. #1. AJ push gets called by A6. #2. AQ push gets called by A7.

UTG is an idiot and will limp/call anything so you NEED to open steal as much as possible because stealing when in the Small blind will never be an option.
SB knows who you are and knows when to call and when not to.
Button is pretty tight and will only call with top hands.

Re: The hand where kyro wears a skirt
 

eh, you may get a bcs bid, but it wont be automatic....i think msu at home may be too tough a game for your boys.

calling once...
 

TT is as good as AQs, it's a top 4% hand. Hero is not short stacked and surely TT is well ahead of Utg's range. I'd call. Out of 6 possible scenarios only one really sucks, that is when UTG beats Button beats Hero.

TT-AQ is probably the cutoff for me though.

for some reason i wasn't understanding this last night, this makes absolute sense. i guess it was just too late.

im still not positive about TT. I know I'm calling AK and JJ+, and I know I'm folding AQ- and 99-. TT is freakin iffy. I think I fold it [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img].
