$11: how tilty am I? need some affirmation or abuse
I'm seriously doubting my game. I'm down 12 buy-ins over the last 22 SNGs. Broke even for the 67 SNGs before that. I suspect my lack of cards is making everything look push-worthy. At the same time, my short-stackedness is driving me insane cause I keep finding myself 7 handed in level 5. $11s have not been kind to me.
Would someone please either berate me for my idiocy or tell me to quit whining and deal with the variance? Thanks in advance. I'm sure glad I make a nice living doing other things. Only thing in my memory was that Villain had raised UTG to t300 6 hands prior. Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (7 handed) converter MP2 (t1360) CO (t640) Button (t2658) Hero (t1262) BB (t440) UTG (t820) MP1 (t820) Preflop: Hero is SB with T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. UTG raises to 300. 4 folds. Hero pushes.

I don't like coin flips this early.

Sorry, forgot to mention this - blinds were going up in two hands. Granted I'm not in a terrible chip position, but I'm going to be at <10xBB very soon.

I don't like coin flips this early. [/ QUOTE ] Agreed. Yes, the blinds are going up and you will have <10 BB, but so will just about everyone else and most of them will have less than you. Wait til you can raise first in rather than re-raise an UTG bettor who put in 37% of his chips. Also, even when your stack is small vs. the blinds, when you are ahead of 4 out of 6 players and close to the 5th, you shouldn't think of yourself as suffering from "short-stackedness".

Re: $11: how tilty am I? need some affirmation or abuse
But when the blinds go up, I'll be pushing into to people w/ ~5xBB or less. Given their "pot commitedness" doesn't that require I tighten my pushing range since they're liable to call w/ pretty much anything suited or connected?
It's going to make my stealing very difficult, no? Or am I thinking about this incorrectly ... I seriously need to by SNGPT...

[/ QUOTE ] Bubble or no bubble. Blinds are high. This is not early. And you have lots of fold equity. I have no idea what you're talking about.
