Re: AA early on

Re: Stars Turbo NL SNGs
My sample size is very small (21 tourneys), but I have to say that I like what I see. More 'gamblers' in them (esp the $15 games), combined with a lower rake make them a pretty good proposition. ...

Re: First hand SnG
I'm not 100% I follow: If you are worried about AA then what are you going to do on the flop when all the cards are low? You simply loose your chips on the flop rather then all in pre-flop. If your...

Re: Who\'s the Moron?????
I depends a bit on if the button has you down as the sort of player who will make huge all-in moves (14xBB) on good hands such as AKs, or so-so hands that want to take the blinds down, such as 33. If...

Re: What would you have done?
I'm not sure that betting 17.5BB pre-flop is a great move with any hand but... you got called by a hand you dominated (hurray) and got unlucky (D'oh).
Obviously his call with ATs is really, really...

Re: My last 21 hands
hmmm, nice collection of cards you got there.

Re: Would anyone call this bet?
I can't imagin why you wouldn't call.
You've bet very weakly at every stage, so he has no way of knowing you have a hand as good as top set. Obviously if you did let him make an unlikly str8 then...

Re: EV results

Re: On the Bubble...Big Mistake?
