Re: a couple hands i would like reviewed
Hand 1, push w/ no question. You have less than 2xblinds & are first to enter. More specifically to your question, push in this spot w/ just about anything. You fold this hand you are only delt one time before in the blind again. At that point you're an easy call for anyone b/c so short stacked.
H 2, this is a tougher call for me. Q's are excellent 3 handed. I'd say it would have to be a decision based more on the read you have on the other two. I'd probably push at this point though.

Re: a couple hands i would like reviewed
The QQ really is a very easy call.
Other than my other post, try looking at it this way. Someone is probably going to beat the short stack here, so he's out. If the short stack is out , would you like to play the other guy heads up with QQ now, or whatever you're dealt next hand? Lori |

If we switch stacks with shorty? I'm curious about the last question. But, I think there are three important points to make here. 1) 3-handed, QQ is a really good hand, especially in high blind SnGs. 2) Once you get to three-handed in a SnG, you should be playing almost like this is a cash game with way too high blinds because the jump between third and second is way smaller than the jump between second and first. 3) Your calling range should go up significantly on the bubble and three handed when you cover. |

Re: a couple hands i would like reviewed
Thanks a lot guys, this has been very helpful. Just so ya know the first hand I folded and ended up losing an all in 2 hands later when I was bb with k8o. The second hand I ended up losing to the big stacks k9o, the small stack had a8o.

The added incentive to pushing the 1st (in addition to "opening"), is that this will most likely be your LAST chance at a HU situation. |
