    Default SnG Analysis wanted

    Played in a couple of SnGs, cant remember if the were $5+1 or $10 + 1, but here are the hands that knocked me out. Some advice would be greatfully received. Have reached 2nd and 3rd a number of times, but seem to keep running into big hnads.

    The First was when we were down to 2 players.

    The second was the first hand of the next game I played , imagine how I felt...

    No advice on hand 2 - you had a king high boat and lost to quads. No legislating for that! Do the same next time, and the time after that.

    Hand 1 - you have top two pair, so what could beat you? Only a set at this point, and it is a pretty aggressive bet from this guy. But it's heads-up, she has you covered, and your hand is good enough that I'm sure most people here would have called the all-in, hoping that the villain had Ax or KQ or similar, as the pre-flop raise might suggest.

    So it seems you played both fine, and got unlucky. Next time you'll get luckier.

    Oh yes, I missed that. What AHiltz said.

    Minraising heads-up, unless the other player folds *a lot*, is weak. AQ is not weak.

    Otherwise standard beats.
    Up my bankroll - buy Saints Row.
  6. #6
    Hand#1 reraise more both preflop and at the flop
    Hand #2: I would have played it differently preflop.
    You raised a decent raise and got reraised and a caller. It is early and you have no reads. Either call or push.
    AA is not unlikely at this situation, but you may have easily been reraised with QQ, JJ, AK, AQ for loose players at low Sng
    Pushing you hope to get called by one player or pick up the pot right there.
    If you choose to call you play carefully if an A hit.
    As the hand turned out you would have lost no matter what you do because the set of Q will never fold, but the results are not the issue.
