Not a lot you can do here. But from my 109 exp for some reason there is always one complete nut that will bust out super early. You just ran into him.

I have changed my a/a and k/k play a lot lately if I get it early on. And depends where I get it. If I get either utg+1 or +2 I limp and hope for a raise then try to get it all in. If no raise, then it is just a pp, no set no bet. Other than that like to come in for at least 150 just to avoid the early on maniacs. Even then that doesn't keep them away. If any type of single or 3x raise will take it up to 250. If 100 or so in lvl 1 then I just push it. If a/a is there, then so be it.

I'd say... seriously, you usually play 109s and you decided to take a shot at a 5K SNG? WTF? Why not try a step 5 or something, not a step 5 x5.

As for this hand, I push it in a $55 or a $33. I assume you should be pushing this in a $5300 as well.

thats impessive! Unless its been a REALLY bad day that tends to make me happy though. It renews my faith in the PP fish!

I don't play 109s, but at the 55s I can say this is a terrible way to play AA and KK all the time. I can imagine it's just as bad at the 109s.

[psyduck]

BTW fiery, his call is HORRIBLE. Why take an opportunity where you're a small favorite at best when you can keep the bubble alive as BIG STACK and steal as much as you want? In fact, if he loses, he becomes one of the 3 smaller stacks.

Just horrible play on his part.

Not trying to flame. I just think you are missing a lot of value by either limping (giving everyone essentially a free chance to outdraw you preflop), or overbetting preflop (to avoid bad beats from loose fish). When you limp, they don't make a mistake when their 33 or A5 outflops your KK. And, by raising to 150 or something, they will end up correctly folding. You want to induce mistakes from the bad players.

Seems like you have suffered some unfortunate bad beats, and you're letting that effect your strategy. There are times to slowplay AA-KK early (either not reraise or limp), but usually you need a solid reads and the proper table image and situation.
