Anything wrong with this?

Yeah, you shouldn't play shallow stacked SNG HU poker like limit holdem. I'm not a fan of the flop bet, especially that big. I might check/call a small flop bet and folding isn't bad either. The turn is pretty bad, why are you donk betting into him again with T high?

That was a min bet. I check preflop and find myself with an open straight draw. I thought this was enough outs to make a bet. If this is wrong and I would lose more in the long run betting as such, let me know.

After the turn, I bet again because I was very certain he did not have an Ace as he would have raised preflop.

I love semibluffing straight draws. I love being a constant semibluffer with HU 10x BB blinds.

So, I check-raise all-in on the flop. I strongly consider just pushing preflop, though checking is good. If I manage to bet out, which shouldn't be horrible, I decide to 3-bet push.

[ChuckNorris]

I would (once again) play it exactly like lastchance.

Yes I agree, if you are getting involved you should get all of your chips in on the flop instead of this minbetting/calling/leading the turn BS.

Preflop there are those that would just push. The call is ok. I can't fold T5s HU. I really would like to see a 1200 bet here. You are giving him an opportunity to fold, and not giving him pot odds to take a run with mediocre hands.

The flop gives you an OESD, so now you can't fold. You either push or wait. I actually prefer wait, here. Check/call the flop, with the intention of check/raising

Preflop there are those that would just push. I can't fold T5s HU. I think the call is at least questionable if not an outright bad play. I really would like to see a 1200 bet here. You are giving him an opportunity to fold, and not giving him pot odds to take a run with mediocre hands.

The flop gives you an OESD, so now you can't fold. You either push or wait. I actually prefer wait, here. Check/call the flop, with the intention of check/raising the turn especially if you hit the straight, or a really useless card hits on the turn. If he pushes, fine. You have the oesd to justify a call. The minraise is just bleeding your stack, and giving him pot odds to call with just about anything, and raise with anything decent. Translation: your minraise stinks!

That would leave you with about a 2400 stack at the turn. When the A hits, PUSH. He simply cannot call with an A on the board unless he either has an A or has hit a set or 2p. But 75% of the time you win the pot right there. Again, if he calls, you still have 8 outs to hit the straight on the river.

Not nearly aggressive enough for HU. Go back and review your bets. They make a pretty good definition of weak/tight.

Yeah, I thought the blinds were 100/200. At these blinds, I'm pushing preflop like 95% since the preflop limp from sb is almost always with a hand he can't call a push with.

I also like c/r the flop all-in.

[yabastid]

Anyone just push the flop and not C/R allin?
