Theres no bigger issue, anyone who doesnt move allin here preflop is completely insane. This is not a minor point. Calling preflop from the SB is flat out terrible. The HH looks weird so maybe I got the action wrong, but if thats what happened, the rest of the hand is irrelvant because the preflop play is so bad.

Well, that may be true, but not my point.

Well to post a hand asking a question about one thing, when BY FAR the most glaring error of the hand is another thing, you should try to actually focus on the part of the hand that was clearly played badly, instead of worrying about some random postflop crap that shouldnt have happened anyway.

Some people here actually play poker.

BTW, ever heard of changing up your play?

Daliman, not moving allin is simply terrible. When you say "some people here actually play poker", what you are actually saying is "some people here play badly".

You can continue to be manly and mix up your play and "take flops", I'll continue to take my immediate minimum of $9 in EV in a single hand. The way you talk youd figure you make $150 per tourney to pass up such an edge.

If you want to change up your play, you can complete QQ or 76s or something where it doesn't cost you some giant amount of expectation to see a flop over pushing.

$6-9 is not some giant amount at the $215 level.

P.S. Pushing 67s is just as, if not MORE profitable than pushing Q9o. Check it out.

$7-9 is not some giant amount at the $215 level? You already have about $860 in equity. $9 is a RIDICULOUSLY large amount of money to make in a single hand in a $215 sit and go, especially when headsup and with such a high amount of EV to begin with. Some people's ROIs are 10%, which is pretty decent. Making almost half of that in one hand is pretty signifigant if you ask me, and with most player's calling ranges, you will make about that much.

I think this is a push PF almost always. However, even at this level I think it pays to vary your play HU. Call, raise, push, all with various hands at various times.
