Re: Time to preserve chips or do you still gamble it up?

I'm talking about losing about 50% of you chips if your AK loses, effectivly putting you back into the 'time to gamble' crowd.

Time to preserve chips or do you still gamble it up?

Lets say your playing a $10 rebuy or a cheap turbo sat on stars, your the type of player who's willing to rebuy often in the hope of building a decent size stack.

The tourney is about half way...

Re: Is it good to stay in the red zone?

Next MTT I play I'm going to put all my chips in except 1 and fold.

That way with my 1 chip I will be much better off decision wise.

I mean, even if its the first round I'll be getting 15-1 and...

Re: do you prefer stealing with trash or marginal hands?

No your wrong /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Stealing blinds is situational. If the BB has shown a tendency to call then raising his BB with 7-2 is almost pointless, it may be profitable if he has...

Re: A Play I Make a Lot

Your not really playing to play a draw for a lot of chips with a hand like this.

If you do flop a BIG draw maybe, but your looking to flop 2 pair, trips or a draw that gets played out cheaply.

Re: Some shallow stack pushes when ITM - Suicide or Standard

The only one I dont like is raising half your stack with 77
either raise 3/4xBB or push.I think it announces you have a middle PP 66-JJ.

I followed the concensus and checked, he showed QQ, I think I value bet with more chips but with no read I couldnt work out what he would raise UTG with and not reraise that flop.

Re: Results

I think one of my biggest leaks is when I am playing aggro and actually have a hand I cant let it go.

Re: Do you open the pot in this situation?

Dont get mixed up with thinking you should steal blinds because of the cards you hold, you should steal blinds because of the situation, i.e people will fold unless they have a strong hand.

Exellent reply, thanks again.

Is it reserved for specific reads, or when your a medium to short stack, card dead but still holding...
