Ok...after playing the guaranteeds on poker.com, getting a healthy stack with about 10 left til the money, I have bubbled 3 out of my last 4...all 11ths and they pay 10. If anyone is interested, can you please review my endgame and tell me where i need to fix it? It is really frustrating when I go card dead and I don't push the EV situations. Back to harrington I go until then...

i won 2 of those on there, and the 5max 3.30 and i took third in the 2k freeroll.

When down to two tables the person who is most sucsesfull at stealing the blinds is going to be one of the if not the big stack at the FT. Your probly playing to tight and not attempting to steal enough. Somtimes you just have to gamble. When your in the orange zone try to push over raisers you suspect might be stealing. If you in the yellow zone wait to open raise more. If your in the red zone then your not playing mid game right and the bubble isnt your concern.

or your just unlucky. I know im a good MTT player, ive won many events this year and i have 17FT out of 46 tours. (not counting the 50 max and freerolls wich ive won quite a few of)

However the last 4 days i havent even made it to break in the last 10 ive played. Somtimes its just varience.

yeah tonight in the 2k it was brutal...12 left and they pd 20...guy limps with k-10 off UTG with 500/1000 blinds which leaves him 8500 ish...i have a lil over 10k....i reraise all in with AJ off and he calls and hits the 10 on the river. I bitched and complained to myself not to let it get to me cuz I learned you never limp with hands like that, and i can't be results oriented. The hard part about these tourneys is they royally suck...shorties always seem to get the good hands, not just waiting for them, and they always suck out lol. It's hard to resteal when you are playing with people who don't always quite understand the endgame at all so most of the time they get a rush of cards. I don't think most know how to bluff at the right times, and I know i'm not the best. Usually, they got goods though. But I did manage a 2nd for 600 in the 3k...I got greedy and tried to bluff when I shoulda folded cuz i knew i could beat the guy.

What was your position with the AJ? again your in the red zone. How much do you raise in this situation...

Your on the c/o with ATs and its folded down to you. blinds are 250/500 no ante (as is consistant with poker.com) you have 15K the button has 13K the sb had 18k and the BB has 13K.

what if the H/j a fairly good player open limps, then how much?

what if you have KK?

what if you have 78s?
