Default Re: How would you play this hand?

If you want some one to explain it here it goes. You have very little understanding of proper strategy in the Party Sng's. You should never take big risks early on because a good player will have a bigger edge later in the tourney than in the beginning of a tourney. Raising 10 10 out of the blinds and getting pot committed to the hand is exactly what you don't want to do, especially when the whole table has limped to you. Play for set value by checking preflop.

i finish 7-10th less than 20% of the time. and everyone keeps talking about pushing edges early on.
and maybe im too used to STARS FTP AND UB stacks.

Not trying to hate on you or put you down but what stakes do you play? I'm pretty sure I have read that you play the 5's or the 10's. Much weaker competition in these games. Some moves that you can pull in these games would be punished by the good players in the 1000 chip games. When you have limpers to you in the higher buy in games they aren't gonna call your raise with trash like they do in the games you play. You will be getting paid off alot less and raped for your stack much more.
