Seat 2: divoter ($18.80 in chips)
Seat 3: The3rdMan...

I've been accumulating experience in the low limit games on Party, but it seems like there is a lot more to be made in pot limit than in limit...so I'm looking to give that a go.

Re: Hand that has been bugging me
This is why you shouldn't play PP SNGs - there is no other play here than re-raise all in. There's nothing wrong with it.
On tourneys with higher numbers of chips, you could raise to 600 with the...

Re: HH Review Q 1
Raise preflop. A8 upwards is strong 5-handed, and I'd in fact raise with any Ace when nobody else has shown strength, like here.
