Re: Pot Odds are killing me in Party Tournaments
I'd agree that I might ditch after the min raise, but I must be missing the issue here - you're getting a great price to call the turn.
I know its early, but I prefer to play more aggressively, if...

Re: TPNK in Dry Sidepot
I don't see why you want to call PF here. To me its a clear fold. You're getting 3:1 to call here, but the CO still has chips left and this is over 10% of your stack. Its a fold for me
On the...

Re: Hand selection once your ITM
You're not always a favorite - how often are you bumping up against higher pairs, or high suited connectors - ie. 55 vs JTs. You're not always a favorite as much as you think.

Re: Hit a set on turn, but puts 3 flush on board
I like to keep the pot small here. I don't mind a check on the turn. I'll call upto a 3/4ths pot bet on the river if another diamond doesn't hit.
Betting out also has benefits to define the...

Why fold this hand preflop? Stacks not deep enough?

Re: 180SnG, TPTK Facing Bet On Flop
Raise and call a push.
His limp-call PF seems pretty weak, weak ace, QJ, 78s, maybe even JT. Don't know if he's bad enough to open limp with 99 or TT.
