Re: Who loses in the \"Big game\"?
Late last year Doyle won a big tourney. He remarked at the time that it kept him from recording his first losing year in awhile. So, I suspect Doyle lost a fair share last year in the big game.

Re: Terrible Play?

Re: I\'m a bit new to SnGs- Need advice
All in!
You'll be a favorite against most of the hands the BB is likely to call with. A Raise is out of the question unless it's All in. Since your image is tight, the likelihood of picking up...

Re: did i make a stupid call here? huge odds..
Pre-flop - I think your call is in order - you're getting great odds with a decent hand and no one has shown any strength.
Flop- I like your flop bet here. Obviously two of the hands are in...

Re: Results
He showed down 44 - for the boat. I think he pretty much got the most out of me that he could. I certainly would've folded to a turn bet. He improved so he wasn't worried about draws anymore. A...

Do You Call This on the River
This was a Poker Starts SNG $5.50. My read on the villian was a solid player. He didn't do anything out of line. I'll admit, I was completely confused throughout the hand and realized just how...

Re: AA out of Position
Thanks. I agree that my re-raise was pretty weak. I was afraid of scaring everyone off. I didn't expect the trapped players to call the re-raise. But again, they were probably getting some odds...

Re: How Would You Play This One?
I'm sorry this is very confusing. He's the SB and I'm the BB. So after the flop it should read, "He checks and I check" - instead of the other way around. On the turn he bets into me and I raise...

Re: Semi-obligitory 20K pokertracker checkup
Come back at 25K.... um, make that 50K. On second thought, come back at 100K. The stats might start to have some resemblence of meaning. It really won't be right then either. So, first play 200K...

Re: Flopped Ace quads on the bubble.
I think it depends on your opponents and what your image is. I think the default move is to check it to the river. Then make an outlandish bet there that looks like a bluff. But it depends as I...
