Re: How easy should this fold be
I think you're facing AK/AQ here a lot. I'm nearly counting out KK here because it's likely they want to get their money in preflop.
The only hand to worry about would be MP1 having QQ, then his...

Re: (PP $10 + 1) QJ all in with low M
You definitely should not do this. Do you really think you can steal when he just has to call 200 to see you?
Stealing is good, but you need to be the first raiser or be able to raise a large...

What are you scared of, Button would raise here with any two cards, and probably raise more if he actually had something. SB represents more with his call (but if he knows Button raises with...

Re: (11) level 1 JJ pushed all-in
Um. He's got nearly a tenth of the chips ten-handed, I think you should look one more time. Just paying the blinds once isn't being chip-starved. /images/graemlins/wink.gif
I might call this if...

Re: 10+1 TT after the flop Push or Fold
I would say you're probably behind here. Reraises in the $11s pretty much mean a pocket pair 88+, and with the second caller one of them nearly always have a pair higher than yours.
I don't really...

Re: Poll: 2 questions for ALL STT posters!
Where's the alternative for break even? I've played 200 Sng's on my first $50 deposit and still at about $200. Maybe counts as winning, but I see it as pretty much break even.

Why should you think about getting away from the hand if it gets scary?
Try to make the most out of it instead. You have a great hand, it's disguised and will probably be paid off by any ace out...

Re: JJ on the bubble (PP $11)

Re: flopped a set with a flush on board
You should definitely just have checked behind on the river. There is no way someone would call a bet here with something you have beat, and if you're lucky, you might just win the pot with your set.

The only hand you can be afraid of here is 55, most people I play would raise preflop with queens/jacks.
Since we know nothing about the table, I might say the pot-sized bet might be a tad too big...
