Wow... I learned a lot from you making obvious plays, winning flips, and sucking out on the end. Folding in +EV spots (especially... gasp... the non push/fold ones) was a nice lesson too. Thank you for this great display of high stakes SNG play, I am truly impressed that you have the ability to beat a mini step 5.

I'm going through pretty fast, but Seat 4 seemed to like to splash things around a bit. I wanna pop him PF.

How standard would you say this hand is (preflop, that is?). Do you often just complete here?

[microbet]

ok, I won't post each hand separately (unless this is the last)

The stack sizes and blinds make this pretty awkward, but I don't wanna just let it go.

I would have bet this flop (probably pushed).


I'll definitely take a longer look at this, but by the time I get around to it the thread will probably be dead and no one will talk to me about it.

These things pay out cash 5-3-2 right? No trips back to the purgatory of the lower steps, I hope.

Is 75 your standard raise lvl 2? Because it's too low if it is. If it's not, you should raise at least close to the same with all your raising hands as to not give away hands strength.

You showed your hand here? I don't get that at all.

I agreed with most of the plays. I push a tiny bit more than you late, but not that much.

Thanks for posting it.

[curtains]

I don't think 75 is too low (although I generally raise to 85, but really it's not a big deal.)

hmm. I make it 90-100. I guess it's not a huge difference still. It just stood out to me because I never make it 75.

[curtains]

Yeah I just dont think stuff like this is a big deal. You should make your preflop raises in accordance with your style, at least early in the tournament that is. Some people feel more comfortable raising more, some less, however I don't want to say that one style is just better than the other.
