Posting to show my interest in this discussion.
Ive had the book ages now so itll be good to go back into it.

Anway. Just 2 points i found in the chapter which drew my attention.

Calling with the AK
and the probe betting.


Calling seems okay to me as i would usually do it at the start and early stages of an SNG or MTT because it lowers volatilty. If im right it was early at the start of that final table. His stack is deep enough to call and use position so i wouldnt argue that it should be a raise.

Probe bets i dont use so often. In SNGs i would bet half the pot most times if im unsure of villians holdings. I think in MTT it can be more useful especially in live MTT where opponents get more time to think what the bet might mean.

My 2c and later chapter will have more discussion.
Jman: every time the action is to you, it's an opportunity for you to make the perfect play.
