hand 51: I meant to say I bet just over half pot instead of pot*.
hand 61: I raise pre if I am Detroit and is probably close for BjsAust.
hand 64: I had him pre with the almost Rippy but for some great soul read I think I'm behind come flop.
hand 71: Standard
hand 72: Must be nice to be able to raise everytime knowing he folds Wink

hand 73: Bahhh he always raises when I have crap but I know why he shows, and it doesn't phase me Smile

hand 74: Obv. have to call if BjsAust pushes but wouldn't be happy.

Hand 74: An interesting example of Gap Concept at work. AT is a great hand to reraise Taipan with, with is not strong enough to call or push over Kminds 3-bet.

Hand 53: Puke :p.

Hand 61: UTG+1 I'd raise, UTG is too early for me.

Hand 51 - Skeeno: With your stack size I definitely bet flop after raising preflop.
Kmind: I really think this is too loose, I can see you're a shorthanded cash game player but in SNGs this sort of play can be very expensive. Nice postflop play though!

Hand 53 - Bjs: Given how loose Todd has played before I think calling is OK given you have position and it's unlikely anybody else will come along. I definitely fold the flop though, against a player like kmind you want to flop a decent hand and win a lot of chips, not float.

Hand 65 - Bjs: I think you could have made it 250 to go here, but it probably wouldn't have made any difference since the player likely to call you (kmind) has already folded.

Hand 69 - Skeeno: I definitely c-bet the flop after raising preflop. That is a safe-ish flop for you, I think you give away the pot by not c-betting (although Todd might float you and try to take the pot away on the turn).

taipan - hand 51, completely agree. Just me really trying to win it postflop by bluffing and hit hard. Not standard at all

Also, I like taipan's flop decision for you Bjs in hand 53. I either raise or fold.

And I agree again with taipan on hand 69, skeeno. You represent missed overs.

Yeah I was easy to telegraph there Kmind, I think a few of our earlier tangles played on my mind at the time.

51: pretty loose by kmind, but it seems to be his day

53: Exactly what Tai said

55: Tai - I think your stack is still deep enough to raise 3BB and call a push

61: Detroit should have pushed it IMO

63: I think Bjs should have pushed and resteal

64: Another very loose call from kmind, if I was tai I would be temped to check it feigning fear of the Ace

66: Considering how loose kmind is I am shoving over with 33 here

69: Wonder why skeeno did not c-bet t

Yep , giving everyone is calling about 5% or so which is prob. the case here. Im so use to the 6.50's that this is usually a muck because there's always that genius who will call a EP shove with A3s.
