Party 22: ITM and BB with AQo
After getting a whopping 1 win and 14 second places in my last 50 20+2 SnG's I've realized I seriously suck at this and really have to improve my game somehow. I pretty much always get to HU with the shorter stack and this is surely one of the reasons for my depressing first place %.
In this game I've been the chipleader most of the time, but the Button has a better luckbox and has won every race/30-70/40-60 situation and is now in the lead. SB is pretty good and has been pushing at the right times, so I'm sure he has a wide range of hands now. I'd say any PP, any ace and any two high cards most likely. Is this a bad spot for a call to try and go for the chiplead HU? The blinds are pretty low though, so I'm really not sure about this one.

I call instantly. I would think you're ahead here a good amount of the time to make this a easy call.

You are crushing his range. He is the shortstack. Call.

I would call. His range has to be extremely tight for this to be a fold.

Re: Party 22: ITM and BB with AQo
i'd call
u have a great shot at knocking him out and setting urself up for first u lose sometimes (damn variance), but even then you double up once and u are back where he is now...steal a few times and u are good to go |

The rest of the tournament
Ok, so what you all are saying is that it is very close but call if I want to gamble, got it [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
I actually thought it might be less clear with the blinds being so low, but I was obviously wrong. After thinking for a little while I called and SB flipped KTo, having me crushed since I can't win a 60/40 situation to save my life. So now I'm the shortstack and need to double up right away. These are the next three hands, opinions on how to play them best? I think I could probably have pushed both hand 1 and 2, but since I didn't, just go ahead and call the third one even though I'm most likely behind?

Re: The rest of the tournament
You need to do some homework so that you can know why not pushing the J2s hand from the SB was a gigantic mistake.
