Default Re: 640 NL tourney on Party hand

Hiatus,

I think you fold here. In this spot, I tend to like to have position when pushing unless I pick up a real solid hand. Just too many people to shove your hand through here, you're bound to get called, and you'll be dominated a good percentage of the time you do.

As for the next round, I'd look for any ace, any pair, any 2 broadway for a push. If you are folded to in the last 3 spots, I'd push with just about anything remotely playable. K9, JT, etc. That's about all you can do in this spot.

On a similar note, I think that waiting it out a little is severely underrated. Once you get to 1200, if you double through someone on just one hand, you'll be roughly up to 3k and have a little room to maneuver again. Many of my best finishes I've found myself with less than 5BBs at a given level of the tournament. Just something to consider, hope it worked out for you.
