Default 55s: I do not know if I am running horribly or playing like a donk...

So here are some of my more recent bust out hands, let me know what you think.

25 buy-in drop right now. I know SNGPT will tell me ICM wise whether it is right, but I find at the 55s often times personal views on pushes is also important. If you want to help me out, just reply and let me know. Thanks.

The subject of your other thread. As I said there, with a stack like this, I fold.

I would move all-in here if the blinds were due to go up before I reached the button again. This one is borderline, but most likely, moving in is the right play.

This one I don't like. I'd fold. It's just too awful a hand, you've got two left to act, and a very small amount of fold equity.

WTF are you doing here? This is very donk. Limp with 88 in this spot. Folding is better than raising.

Default Re: 55s: I do not know if I am running horribly or playing like a donk

QT: I fold this every time preflop unless the minraiser has really been abusing the move lately (and then I would push instead of call).
K5: easy push.
KQ: I'd probably let this go because you're in real trouble if you lose the hand and KQ sucks and there are 2 short stacks.
48: you have minimal FE so I'd wait for a better hand, then push any 2 utg if all else fails.
88: I'd limp behind and fold to a raise, definitely fold to a small reraise like that.
56: No idea why you're pushing 56 in MP.
2J: I'd push junk like that from SB but not from button.

I am not going to comment on indivudal hands becasue there are 4q30574082564 of them, but in general I have 2 observations.

1. You are calling raises and pushes with marginal holdings... i would rather push any 2 against a stack than make the calls your making.
2. It appears you are waiting too long to shove.... with not much FE left. I would begin to make moves earlier in the tourney.

HandS:

1. I would this fold PF, or push. I dont like the ambiguity. But I have called here before and if I did I would play it the same. Flop looks good.

2. Fine

3. If you were BB then this would be a good call, but I dont much care for this...you have a good stack, better to steal, youre behind A2.

4. fine, ne2

5. fold to the minreraise PF.

6. fine

7. close...I might wait for a better hand, but a push here is fine i think.

Default Re: 55s: I do not know if I am running horribly or playing like a donk

To defend my 56 hand, that is one I felt the most confident with. 56s is usually a 40 % dog if it gets called and I had very few chips left with blinds and my FE was about to go to crap. Unless I messed something up sNGPT says 1.5 % push, hmm.

The 88 and QT hands were moronic, I'll give you that. I chalk them up to bad run tilt. Maybe it's time to take a day off.

56 is 39% vs a random hand. If I remove hands with cards below 7 in them, leaving aces, 66 and 55 (just to remove hands that would never ever call), 56 is a 35% dog.

How can SNGPT say 1.5% push, obviously you've put them on too tight a range for calling. Here's a clue they won't call with 66+,AT+ or whatever the default setting is, I can guarantee!

88 bad, 84 bad, J2 bad, rest fine.

I think the problem when you push with crap is that you aren't looking at the stack size of the BB. He knows you are desperate and are pushing with a wide range and he has the chips with which to look you up.

88 I don't have to explain as someone else already did.

This is so very true. It's why I love to pick up any kind of hand here, because the stuff they call with defies belief. Yeah, sometimes you lose as a 60/40 favourite but most times you don't and double up, and are right back in it.

My personal favourite so far was someone calling with 7 2 sooted. I mean, wtf? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
