Re: Early in Stars nighttime 20+2
For sure, someone has you beat at the flop. The raise is okay, to see where you stand on the hand, but I'm 99.9999% sure you're behind this after the re-raise.
I would have folded this...

Re: Time to make a move on the Bubble w/ A9o
Was he raising consistently like this in early position? Or were his raises coming mostly from middle to late position?

Re: 2 Situations from $22 Rebuy on Stars
1. Admittedly, a hole in my game. I mix up my raises between 2.5 and 4x on the button, and I think it's because I just don't want to be predictable. I did fold.
2. Button had me outchipped...

Re: How badly did I play this?
If it's so tight, I wouldn't play 4-4 from such an early position.
Also, I don't think I'm calling his all-in raise either. Again, if the play is so tight, your very best case scenario is that...

Re: Opinions on this satellite bubble push
I'm curious to hear what people think about this.
At first you say you think he's got between 77 and AA. That's 4 hands that have you beat right now. You did not discount this when calling with...

Re: UB $100 Bubble Question
Push.
Get heads up with the button. If you're lucky, he raised with K-J or K-10 or something of that nature.

Re: 5.5R PHLE AJ hand
It's a $5 rebuy. Gotta raise here. Isolate against one or two opponents and you're looking at being ahead going to the flop.
Ordinarily, in a non re-buy I'd probably check here also. But my...
