Raising to 50 then folding could work out better but I would be out of position and the small raise invites a push from a lot of hands which I may beat. 100k did the same thing as a push since I pushed a few hands earlier I wanted to actually look like there was thought behind the bet.

I totally agree with comments. But sometimes I wonder if these donks reraise to 175K thinking he has some folding equity against you, not realizing your pot committed. I don't know.

first off, i just wanted to say that in these shallow stacked tournaments, while its frustrating, its not that surprising to go from CL to broke in just a couple of hands. i mean, look at where you were -- as CL, you had about 21BBs. thats silly.
second hand looks good. the first hand though, i think sometimes you have to spell it out for these guys -- you have no fold equity! if it folds to you in the SB here, and BB has a comfortable chipstack (under 10xBB, but I bet a lot of stacks were under 10xBB at that time), you should just push. don't give him the notion that he MIGHT make you fold. instead, make him decide whether he's willing to put his "tournament life" on the line with whatever hes holding. or of course the alternative is raising to 50k and folding to a push. but i think raising to 100k is the "worst of both worlds." i say push it allin and make that sucka make a big call to double up. |

[/ QUOTE ] So what exactly did you hope to accomplish by raising to 100K? Did you think that size raise would encourage your opponent, perversely, to fold some hands with which he would have called a push? |
