Re: What MTTs am I missing out on outside of Stars?

Playing the Stars $45,000 RB, and decided to jump into the Party $40,000.

Don't know why, but I've never played an MTT on Party. This should be fun.

Thanks for the recomendation.

What MTTs am I missing out on outside of Stars?

I occasionally play SNGs and cash games on other sites, but I always play MTTs on Stars. What are some of the *must play* tournaments I am missing out on elsewhere?

When I say must play, I...

Re: Sites Have Motivation to Reward Poor Players. Period.

I don't know about other sites, but Stars is the most respectable and honest poker site around.

As for software being 'rigged', have you ever thought that perhaps the game of poker itself is...

Re: 2 tough decisions from Foxwoods

Hand 1 - I think UTGs bet size dictates my action somewhat. He bet 300 into a 900 pot, I like a raise to 1200-1500 (I'm assuming UTG and BB have similar stack sizes as you?). I think a raise defines...

Re: PS 55+5 Turbo, tough decision with top pair

I would have folded preflop, am I crazy tight?

I generally play the $16s and $27s, with occasional visits to the $60s.

Re: Re-stealing

Another thought regarding my 3rd criteria and how it isn't a formula to be followed by rote.

If I guy steals my BB the 1st time, and then the next 2-3 times he has a chance to steal and doesn't, I...

Re: Re-stealing

This is probably not optimal, and one should always try to know the players at your table, etc., etc., but here are some loose guidelines that I've been using lately that seem to help me decide when...

Re: ($27) - Early JJ POST-flop...big pot, multiway

bluefeet,

This JJ hand of yours nicely illustrates how playing questionable hands OOP can be extremely difficult.

Summary: After you C/R, the pot is sitting at 1050, you have about 1100 in...

Re: ($27) - Early JJ POST-flop...big pot, multiway

(I mostly play the $16s, but occasionally venture into the $27s)

Preflop, and early in the SNG, I like the call.

Flop: In this situation, this is a BAD flop for you. If you were heads up, or...

Re: Hey Lee Jones, Fxxx You.

I'm assuming that everyone thinks that a 'good' structure is one that favors a good player. A structure that allows plenty of time/space for a good...

Re: \"Fold, keep your image tight so you can steal more later\"

I've been Pushing away and enjoying it.

One thing I've noticed since the beginning of the summer, IMHO, is that players are worse, in general. I play groups of 4 to 6 SNGs, and almost invariably,...

Re: Johnny Chan story

So, you are saying he can do this because he is so good, that the players at this table couldn't use this information to hurt him?

Or that he is the Man, and chooses to do what he likes, even if...

Chan knows how to play, that's for sure. Given that, why does he show these laydowns? I know many 2+2ers would NEVER show these hands, including myself. I have enough problems in tournaments without...

Re: Easy Push w/Trash?

Why is it not a good push if I'm 95% sure he will call, but good at 90%? Just wondering how you reach that conclusion.

Using SNG Power Tools (and setting the BBs calling range at...

Re: Easy Push w/Trash?

Matt Walker,

The stack sizes listed are AFTER posting the blinds, so I need to put in 660 (leaving me with 864) to put him allin. He has 460 left to call with.

Re: Stars Rebuy - Calling All-In w/AK

Results:

I called. UTG shows A2 /images/graemlins/heart.gif, and Big Stack shows QQ. Needless to say, the Queens held up, and I bust out 193rd.

Thanks for the replies.
