Re: Good laydown?
I like this laydown. One of the biggest leaks in my game that I have worked on recently is folding after a raise and re-raise in front of you on the turn, post heavy flop action. Realize that it...

Re: Calling All-ins
Hand 1, with the blinds at a relatively low amount, and with your stack at a healthy level, there is no incentive to call an all in with KQ. In fact, it is almost always a mistake to call a raise...

Re: good push?
I like it. Less than 10BB. Against 2 limpers. A great time to steal your own blind and the rest of the money that's in the pot. I'd be very suprised if you didn't have the best hand here. So to...

Re: Crazy loose early in the tourney.
The pre-flop call is fine.
I found myself in a similar situation last night, with AK and the board QJ. I lead out with a pot sized bet and folded to an all in and a call coming back to me.

Re: Leak?
I typically open raise KQ from MP on party levels 1 and 2. So far about a 75% win rate with it. I win between 30-200 chips per hand at these levels. Low variance, high chip return don't lead me to...

Take the free card?
I usually take an aggressive tact and bet my strong draws but wanted to hear some opinions. I'm sure my pre-flop raise may concern some, but in a field of limpers I felt comfortable with the play. ...

Re: Take a stand or fold to ITM?
Here's where a read on UTG helps. But I think u miss the other option.
Hero calls getting 2-1 and sees the flop which hits him at exactly the same rate. I don't like a push here since it is an...

Re: You called 120 with 22? Terrible!
I don't like it. It's the 6th hand of the tournament. You are a dog to the range of hands that would raise here, in the absence of reads, from typical opposition (AA-TT, AK,AQ maybe a couple of...

Re: Good steal situation?
I actually would consider raising your KJ more of a value bet in this situation. Odds are you have the best hand. Easy raise to 3xBB.
