($33): Short stack play, some close hands near the end.

[xJMPx]

I've been in a disturbing cycle the last few weeks, lose lots at the beginning of the week and then work like hell just to get even by the end of the week. Then start it all again on Monday! So, I've been searching my game and trying to plug some leaks.

I ran these hands through SNGPT and would just like some real life comments on them that take the situation into account.

bump. Thought I would get ripped for a couple of these hands.

I think folding that K6 was a very, very poor play. Folding to the miniraises is fine - if the initial raiser has any idea what he is doing you are getting called.

I think you have to push this. The approaching blinds will eliminate any FE you have. This could be the last chance you have to open raise with any FE. I would raise here with quite a bit less than K6o.

I was surprised when I looked at my HH and saw that I didn't push the K6, I would usually push this here. Would anyone push the 62o the next hand?
