Re: standard small overpair?

I play the hand exactly like you did. Mainly because I don't want to get blown away by a CR on the turn. I'm still pretty sure I'm ahead on the turn, but not enough to call a CR from a hand like A...

Party $33 - bubble hand

I think this is an easy call under the "you have to finish last and shorty has to finish first to miss the money" rule. Am I right?

Blinds 200/400. 4 handed.

Re: Did Party stop emailing SNG HH\'s?

I had this happen too. They told me it was my email provider, so I switched from hotmail to gmail and I've gotten all of them since then.

Re: $11\'s AQ... fold TPTK from early position?

[ QUOTE ]
Also, I think you need to lead out for more than 1/3 of the pot on the flop. Your actions looked like a weak continuation bet and invite a bluff.

Re: $11\'s AQ... fold TPTK from early position?

I wouldn't fold in this spot at an $11. Villain could easily have KQ or QJ. Or he could just be stacking off.

Re: 33 - JJ in SB, ugly board

I like how you played this hand. It is similar to the 99 hand I posted, except you were able to get it heads up after the flop and I wasn't /images/graemlins/mad.gif

Re: (22) 99 in SB, early on.

Thanks schwza. I feel like I played it okay only because the other options aren't that great.

Do you ever raise preflop in spots like this? I saw your JJ hand, similar to this one in many ways...

Re: (22) 99 in SB, early on.

I agree with a lot of what you say, but saying that I'll only get called by people with monster draws and those that dominate me is a little silly at this level.

Re: thoughts on these two folds? bubble davids + goliath

How has the big stack been playing?

With no reads, I would probably push the 55 hand and fold the A6 hand, but I am not good in spots like this.

Re: Hand review fold or push?

1) Going through the blinds again will knock you down to t300, unless the blinds go up before they get to you, which is worse.
2) 55 is probably better than anything you will see before the blinds...
