Re: ($27) - KK line
You know, I think I'd take the same line whether the flop was AAA or AA4 actually.

Re: Early $27 Turbo with stars... QQ BB play along
I think I'd reluctantly call against unknowns, and lay it down if I respected the overcaller in the least. Tough spot. Also don't think the full pot bet is necessary (250-300 accomplishes the same...

Re: New Year\'s Resolutions
1. Reduce my underbankrolled shots at high LHE games. They relegate me to the $27's every few weeks.
2. Possibly start keeping stats again and/or get PokerTracker.
3. Get SNGPT and play...

Re: Theory: Approach to Very Short Stack Play
In a spot like this, I sometimes like to get in behind an open-pusher with any two, usually giving me a chance to triple up or better. Of course, I'll still open-push any ace, faces, etc. I think...

Re: $33: 4 hands from yesterday\'s losing session
1. Fine.
2. I'd have made a pot-sized bet on the turn. Then when he check-raises you all-in, you might not have that same read (that he thought you were bluffing). As is, it's read dependent. ...

Re: PS $27 turbos = PP $?
Sure, any game is beatable. I don't keep the best stats in the world, but I've beaten the $60's pretty significantly (well over 10%, and probably closer to 15-18% over thousands while multitabling)....

Re: PS $27 turbos = PP $?
I think there's a much bigger skill difference between the $60's and $114's than the $27's to the $60's, though I guess it's a matter of opinion to some degree.
