Keep it up. |

Honestly I would push all three hands.
Hand 2 (TT) I would come over the top, especially if he has shown to be using his big stack to push people around. |

I don't know if I like a shove with tens here to be honest. We'r 2nd in chips and are in now way desperate to accumulate chips. In an MTT then maybe I shove this but not in a SnG. If I have a good read however that he's loose and will fold to a shove then I might shove in this spot.
The Q7 hand is probably a shove. I actually folded and the sb shoved and BB called. sure one had KK and the other A-Q. good fold me  lol
The AQ hand I shoved and they folded. pretty standard I suppose. |

You have 12xBB. It doesn't matter whether or not you are 3rd in chips, 1st, or last. If you have 12xBB then you are almost in push/fold mode nonetheless. If there are still 7-8 people when the blinds get 200/400, it doesn't matter if you have more chips than the person sitting next to you, you need to be able to cope with the blinds. |

Managed to squeeze a few more games in last night. was nothing else to do as everything is packed etc. lol.
after I won a SnG I decided to play $10 180 man SnG and finished OOTM. no big deal as I freerolled it, so to speak.
I then played 4 $6.50's and finished OOTM in them also. My BR is now $136.05.
This got me thinking. How common are 4 and 5 OOTM streaks? I was sitting at a nice $173.00 and now I'm back at $136.00. |

Very common.
Yesterday alone I had two 5 ootm streaks, luckily couple with a 3 winning streak.
Turbos generally give very streaky stats and as long as you don't tilt from them you will sustain your roi in the long run and end in profit.
Of course with an exceptionally nasty streak you'll have to move down to recoup losses first. |

I guess your right. Turbo's will have more swings than normal SnG'. I'll just have to learn to cope with these. Their a f*ckin pest though lol
Just finished 4th in a game. reraised all-in with aces PF, villain calls with 4-5 suited and hits a flush!! he wasn't even that much ahead of me in chips to begin with!! |

I just had a 15 OOTM streak, my worst run in my 1000 games. I thought it was tilt as I was pretty tired and also quite irritated. Just went back to analyse how bad it was - almost all of my bust outs were push/ fold, all 14 of them were good shoves according to sitngowiz with reasonable ranges. Kept running into JJ+ or donkeys who sucked out / called with crap and were still ahead.
I wouldn't worry about 5 at all! |

May I add that Turks are one of the most friendly folk I have ever met. made myself and my girlfriend feel really welcome and the food is superb also!!
I'll probably be going back to Icmeler next year again. My parents have been going to Turkey for 10 years now and they love it.
Moving on.......... Will post a full HH once I've played a turbo as I want to see if I've not lost anything. 2 weeks without poker was a nightmare by the way lol... |

Full HH of recent turbo.
Dont think I played particularly well. some of my pushes may have been wrong. haven't checked WIZ yet.
comments please.
Tourney is upside down so start from bottom
http://www.flopturnriver.com/Online-Poker-Tournament-1609.html
Hand 14 - I contemplated folding here from EP. was cont bet ok?
Hand 11 - easy shove?
Hand 10 - this guy had been playing a wide range. I noted earlier he limped then called a raise with K-5 UTG. also watched him call big bets with 2nd pair also. was Turn shove ok?
Hand 8 - I think this was wrong to shove. A-7 is weak. however, Pokercommish was pretty tight throughout. daan1984 I reckoned wouldn't call without a strong hand. I was a bit miffed here but opted for the push.
Hand 7 - I think this is an easy shove.
thanks in advance. |
