Re: Amusing reaction to 79s push ( low content )

With 8BB late in a Stars tourney, I once pushed 66 against a hyper-aggressive UTG+1's 3BB raise. He called with QQ and I drew a 6 on the river. Two railbirds instantly berated me for my ridiculous...

Re: Limit tournaments, question on stacking off?

I would like to know the suits here, but regardless, you're putting all your chips in this hand. Period. The small possibility of getting a better hand before the BB hits, only to win a...

Re: Show one, show all rule

My understanding is that in most rooms, you can show one card when the hand does not go to showdown.

My understanding is that in all rooms, people who show one card are generally douchebags.

Re: $10+1 rebuy, in the money....

[ QUOTE ]
UTG in this situation without knowing stack sizes for the rest of the table, to push I think I need AQ/AK, 77+. Maybe AJ or KQ.

So it's a fold for me, but not by much.

Re: $10+1 rebuy, in the money....

With 5BB left, there's no agonizing over this. If you don't push here, you'll be pushing two random cards from the BB. Just push this reasonably strong holding and hope for the best.

Make it simple. Look at your cards at the same time everyone else looks at them, as you turn them over after 8-betting the river blind. Make sure to announce "just the nuts" and (and this is very...

How big is his stack? He's chip leader, but by how much? If he would be crippled after losing this hand, I'm pushing it. If he's not completely inept you might fold out a weak ace. Ah hell, I'm...
