Re: ($22) Deuces ITM River Bluff Raise...do you likey?
He never said you should've folded 22. He said that "effective M" and "red zone" don't matter. You play it, but your decision has little to do with your effective M. HOH is a book on multitable tournaments, not SNGs. Different strategies apply.
I like your t400 raise. Follow it up with a t500 bet on the flop though. You showed aggression preflop and a continuation bet would win you the pot fairly frequently. If it doesn't, check it down.
It's not that I particularly hate your river push, but I think the continuation bet is the much better play. Safer and probably more effective. You don't want a donk to hit their 8 and think they're good, and as a safe rule of thumb you don't want to see more cards with 22.
