Re: Chasing your own money
Hmmm... I may be wrong, but I think that the blinds are your problem.
You're making even money decisions on each street, so they're +0 EV. However, you're putting in the blinds on each hand, which...

Re: $109s - Push or Fold PT IV

If so, do you eastbay's SNG Analyzer to do it?...
