Re: What is he Thinking?
I see these calls on the flop all the time at the 11s. I didn't think players at the 215s would be doing it as well. I truly think that they see your flop push as a blatant steal attempt and they...

Re: Facing a Bubble Push from Short Stack
I got fixated on the possibility that I could be the one to knock out the short stack. I feel that I am generally too tight on the bubble in these situations, where I am in 3rd place and I just wait...

Re: Bubble line
Given the fact that the SB has raised the big stack out of position causes me to fold my A9o in a heartbeat.

Re: frustration - LC/NC
That's why I can't stand playing $11s at Party, where you start with 800 chips. It's a couple of levels of folding and then shoving all-in with the first decent hand you see in level 3. Bah!...

Re: hand three, what do you do?
I don't like the idea of playing AKo in a 4-way pot. Push and then double up against 88 when your K hits on the flop. See how easy that was?

Re: ($22) Stop N Go here?
I really prefer to stop and go with a pocket pair and not a weak Ace. I've seen many a big stack call my post flop pushes with their AK or AQ overcards, so if they do that to you, you are in deep...

Re: ($22) Spot for a stop n go?
If you don't have any fold equity against the raiser pre-flop, you certainly are not going to have any post-flop, given your relative stack sizes. Push pre-flop and hope you get called.

Re: Stealing blinds
If a bigger stack is always raising your blinds from late position, you need to take a decent hand and reraise him all-in, not merely call and hope you hit the flop. That usually slows 'em down.
