Re: Q9s on button
I think the flow of the game up to this point is the most important thing here. In general I would say very little in it between fold/raise, I'd lean towards raise. However, it's not a bad spot for...

Re: Call allin on the bubble with junk?
Hey Dan. Going slow but steady thanks.
A week or so ago I started up a set of 4 Mini Step 2's as a break from the grind of regular SNG's. They're hell though. It's almost impossible to drop...

Re: Call allin on the bubble with junk?
Okay, guess I had a bit of a brainfart here then. I really didn't think it's as cold ct as you guys all seem to think.
Basically, his range is very wide here, especially given the fact he'd been...

Re: You think this is a leak?
Okay, first off, somewhere down this thread two people have said they get it as -0.7% or something, what's going on here? What calling range gives you +0.9%?
Also, I think that pushing is less...

Call allin on the bubble with junk?
Slightly bizarre one here, maybe I've gone a bit mad. Anyway, bubble of a Mini Step 3 (top 2 $165, 3rd $55).

Re: 2 Tough Bubble hands
What I think he's pushing isn't relevant to what I was asking. I was just talking about the numbers relating to the range alreday given, which goes down to KJo and KTs.
To be honest though, I...

Re: Continued AK hand
What are you thinking of as an alternative? You have about 600 back and theres over 200 in the middle. The pot is already plenty valuable to us, so I don't like letting someone catch a 2nd pair for...

My theory is that it does follow an S-curve, because I believe the value of your stack is related not only to its size, but the rate at which you can continue to grow it, which reduces as...

Re: Psychology/Mindset
I guess I tend to kick off each set with the mindset of, "Okay, I'm gonna have all you [censored]!". So yeah, I suppose I hate them in a superficial sense. I don't think it's a good thing though...

It's context dependent. I meant fine shape in the sense that you're still ok, despite the worst possible outcome happening. Whereas in the other case, I was saying it was bad in relation to other...

Re: KJ on bubble. Is this a push?
Maybe I'm off a bit here, but two things.
1. You don't even need to finish 2nd. You can happily finish 3rd so long as big stack beats BB.
2. Back to the original point, I never said you should...

I don't follow. I never said anything about trapping. And I don't see why the BB would have to have a very big hand to call in this case, given that he has half of his stack in already. I doubt...
