Re: How would you play this hand?
This is a tough one. If 1st position(2nd stack) limper has been limping into everything, I may push here and try to take it down. If he's been limping into a lot of pots, it's likely he doesn't have...

Re: JJ facing a raise
the first position raise/blind steal seems to be getting more and more commone on Party. I rarely give it much credit, unless the player deserves the credit. more often than not, it is the same as a...

Yeah, this is right out of Marketing 101. How many of you think the advertising campaign "we don't have anything really good to show you, but we do have something okay" would be effective?

Re: Heads up SnG
I'm going to beat Strass to his post. Push preflop. (Then curse when the big stack calls you and catches with that crap.) Seriously though, the aggressive heads up/push style is perfect for a hand...

Re: A little trouble Bigslick
[ QUOTE ]
I'm relatively new to tournaments but why not just call? You are closing out the betting so you can't be raised back all in. Take a look at the flop. If it hits you, great. If not, you...

Re: On playing when you\'re too tired.
I've played some 10/1 stud when I just don't have it on a given day for NL. I've found there's money to be made most of the time there. The tourney runs a little longer(at least it seemed that way to...

Re: Hit-n-Run strategy
From my own recent experiences, I find that all that does is keep you in the same place. I tried that exact strategy and was never winning the 2 in a row.
What I'm currently doing is playing...

How would you play this situation?
~140 players left. I had T4800 in chips. Blinds were up to 200/400. 110 places pay. Play had tightened up to the point where players were only dropping at a rate of about 1 every other hand, so I...

Re: 24s in the BB
and then there is the subtle implied odds of paying off on bigger hands down the road when you get called here by the overflush draw and your 2's hold up. half the people at the table assume you are...

Re: Hand History From the Bubble on Out
Your play looks fine by me. Not that my oppinion should weigh heavily with you at this point.
My own comment on this though relates to something that was said about a week ago on here. Do you...

Re: seeking advice on late play with big stack
1) You pushed when you had the best hand. That's we're looking for. The only way you aren't ahead there is if your opponent has pocket J's or AT. If you won this hand, you were virtually guarenteed...

Re: Hand from Party Multi $30/3 for review

Hand from Party Multi $30/3 for review
I didn't download hand history, so this is all from memory, but my memory is quite clear here. I'm just posting pre-flop and flop, because I want to hear other's thoughts.

Re: all in or fold mode
I'm not the expert some of the other posters on here are, but I think the general rule of thumb I've seen on here is 10x BB. Once you drop below 10x, your move should either be all in or fold.
