Default Re: Two Condensed Hand Histories (One Short, One Longer and all converted)

Thank for the feedback.

I'm going to assume though that this was an attempt to steal the blinds. Even so I wouldn't be doing it with the BB having 4 times the chips you have. It's a pretty easy call for him if he's got any marginal hand and he's probably figuring you're attempting to steal the blinds.

I think the blinds were going up the next hand. Still, it was definitely a horrible play on my part.

This is still the first level and AJsuited is not an all in hand here. Especially after a guy raised 3BB.

I'm MP1. When I folded there was only one limper in front of me. I won't start playing AJs until I'm one off the CO. I'll raise 3xBB if it's folded around to me and limp if there are limpers. This is for the early rounds, is it too loose?

Fold this.

Without the limper I might of thought about pushing. Still too early?

I think if you're going to steal you should pay more mind to chip size in general.

Ok. Right now my feelings are if I'm looking to steal and/or double up I have to have a tighter range against blinds with 3x+ my stack as well as blinds that are very small (stack size not blind size). And I should loosen my pushing standards against the imbetween stacks since they will have, in general, a much tighter calling range (Thus increasing my stealing chances). Is this thinking flawed?
