RESULTS and my two cents worth
The last two responses are dead on correct.
PREFLOP: I was braindead for not raising preflop. Should definitely have sought a HU situation.
FLOP: I should have made the draws pay a dear...

Re: Party 5/10: Small set facing turn c/r from BB
I play it exactly as you did. At that level, I have seen calls from Q5 and Q4. I also think he could be on 44 or 45, and maybe TPGK.
Given his play preflop and on the flop I don't think any of...

Re: First Hand w/ JJ
I fold and wait for a better spot unless I have played with the re-raiser before. You may be up against AK but more likely KK or AA.
P.S. Congrats on the big finish in the million dollar tourney.

Multi-tabling v. Single tabling
After playing a couple thousand of these SNGs at levels mostly between $22-55, I finally have come to some conclusions.
The most significant conclusion is that I cannot successfully multi-table...

Re: Short stacked Question
Thanks for the reply. I only mention busting a few times with it because that is what has brought it to my attention. Statistically, it is completely meaningless.

Short stacked Question
I frequently find myself approaching the end of the second hour of MTTs with about 5-7x BB. Many times, I find myself without a hand for two or three straight orbits. Inevitably, I will pick-up a...

Re: Folding Equity Subplot
Agreed. Overall, it puts a great focus on aggressive play late. I sometimes tend to let the tournament come to me. When I say that, I mean I will let others try to knock each other out and not...

Re: Folding Equity Subplot
Excellent topic. More than an answer, I have a question. At the 6x BB level you will all in with K7s. Is it because of the rank of the K or would you push with 10/9s also?

Re: Chip Reese comment as applied to Bankroll
It is so much easier for me to play stronger when playing just beyond my limit. If I ventured too far outside my realm, at this point I play at the $30-50 SnG, I push too much and feel uncomfortable.

Chip Reese comment as applied to Bankroll
He was quoted last night as saying he does not play in the smaller ring games because it does not hurt when he loses in those. He was not talking about hurting bankroll, he was talking psyche.

Re:
Great response Lloyd. I think table position is what gave me the most pause about the way I played the hand and makes me rethink this "guideline".

I did not feel desperate (except to the extent that I was not catching cards) as I had an above average chip stack. However, I thought I might catch a small stack with a smaller ace or even better...

Re: Oklahoma allows Poker
Tulsa. I am very interested in playing tournies. Don't think I'll play much limit or no limit ring games due to the rake and tiping.

I like your reasoning. Frankly, late in the MTTs, I hate playing much besides PPs under the gun unless I am making a gutsy steal move. However, I just felt like I needed a double up to ensure my...

Re: 10x BB all in rule modified?
As a follow-up, I would have pushed with AK no matter what, but I played other hands differently, such as throwing away small pairs. I thought about limping with the small pairs earlier but decided...

10x BB all in rule modified?
Yesterday, I found myself in the top 25 of an 820 person $30 MTT. I had just over 28,000 chips where the average stack was 20,000. However, the blinds were at 1500/3000. As such, about 2/3 of the...
