Re: Should I go broke here (KK early tourny)

Push. He probably has an overpair as well. He probably won't fold it. Worst case scenario is a set and it's not too terrible likely with his big bet. He could very likely have a good ace w/ a flush...

Re: QQ final table

Open push. You're obviously tying yourself to the pot but you don't want anyone to be able to get away from a dominated pair, or whiffed high cards on the flop, even though they'll be getting great...

Re: Bet top set? QQ on moderately coordinated board

I think it's fine. Definitely want to charge the draws here against 2 opponents. Might be worth checking occasionally if you were heads up, but 3-way I'm almost always betting this and hoping someone...

Re: Question about MTT ROI versus 1 table ROI (Mark Blade)

If you have a significant sample size of SNGs played and MTTs played I think you'd see that this is unquestionably true.

Re: NL 50+5 hand input appreciated

Raise PF. Raise to 850 on the flop. Raise to 1100 on the turn and go from there. I put him on a pair+gutshot type hand as most likely.

Re: $10 MTT Party Poker 1st Hand - Right Call?

You really shouldn't need math to figure this one out, especially given the ranges you gave. Give him AA 80% of the time then maybe it might be worth looking at, but since you can never do that...

Re: push from the sb on the bubble question

Any read on the BB? I wouldn't need much of one to push here, but if I had a read that he was a maniac of some sort i'd fold. I'd often push this into any seemingly sane player.

Re: Flopped flush draw on failed blind steal - call push?

You're 2-1 to hit a flush. If you miss your flush you have 6-high, and thus can not win. If your opponent has any pair higher than sixes you're a 2-1 dog. If your opponent has a higher flush draw...

Re: When is it a compulsory call ?

This is far from a mandatory call. First off in this situation you have FOUR live players to act after you who could re-raise meaning you won't actually end up getting the odds you thought you were...

Re: What\'s your pushing range here?

Hey, i was sitting at this table.

Ended up busting 245th (220 was ITM) when my AK lost to JJ.

Anyways to answer the question, with someone already raising in front I'm probably pushing 88+,...

Re: what would you do in this situation?

If he's a very good player as you say he is then he's not making this move with air hardly ever.

Re: Flopped flush draw on failed blind steal - call push?

You're a 2-1 dog and you're getting 1.7-1 on a call, so it's a fold.

Re: Three hands vs. same player, Super Monday

Hand 1: I'd bet the turn. And check-call what is hopefully not a big bet on the river if I got called on the turn. If it is sizable I'd probably check-fold the river.

Hand 2: I put him on a draw...

In my big wins I always had a few suckouts along the way, but I think another key factor is that when i did suckout I was rarely in for MY tournament life when it happened. Like if some nit finally...

Re: final table hands vs. LAG

I assume both re-raises are all-in. not that it really matters.

Hand 1: I think 40K is too big a raise here if you're planning on folding to a re-raise. My standard raise here is about 20-24K. If...
