That's actually a problem I've been having in these particular tournies. A LOT of people seem to only min-raise when the blinds get up to 200 or more, and it's really fucking with my reads. lol

Thanks for the input, guys. I saw it as a steal(which maybe I shouldn't have, since he min-raised) and pushed it. Unfortunately, he had K's and I wound up crippling myself and missing the money.

I...

My goal is to play 16 10+1 2 table SnG's on PP a day and get a feel for what my ITM and ROI percentages SHOULD be. Of course, I need to stop playing like a frigging donkey to determine that. :-)

Auto raise with anything, or with this hand specifically? Raise how much?

Thanks

There's a flush draw on the board here. That would be the tipping point for folding this, in my opinion. I read it as mommer protecting the trips from the flush.

This hand is a prime example of...

The pot size bet is to show strength to one of the two stacks on the table that might fold to it if he's unsure of where he stands. More psychological than odds related with the blinds this small...

I pot size bet the flop rather than 2/3 and then bet the turn strong, as well. Fold the turn if he re-raises, Check/Fold the river if he called the turn.

The most important point of the thread. Don't get me wrong, Fortune... I definitely agree with your points on pot odds in SnG's, but eliminating the mistakes that put you in that situation in the...

{steams} :evil:

ugh

I don't think he has a flush, but he doesn't think you do, either. I still think QQ, KK, or AA pushes the flop rather than taking the chance on that heart, though. I hate those smooth...

I think I let him steal my blinds if I'm holding 83o. Given your stack size in relation to the table, the blinds and his, I definitely think there are better spots to challenge him.

i must say it's a really safe dream to chase - so keep chasin' that dream. ur bound to get there sooner or later. and once u do u'll find them coming in bunches...trust me :)[/quote]

I hear ya....

Pretty much precisely what I do, with the exception of the dog part. As for handing it, I do. There is a big difference between steamed and tilted. Some of us Type A's thrive on steamed. lol

Excellent work. I'm still working on 1 in a lifetime. lol

I didn't say I don't ever play anything early in an SnG. I specifically play pairs for sets and monsters with excellent results. Early on, though, when there are 3 or more idiots at the table(in...

Well, I never get tilty over it, and yes, it's a big tell. I just hate watching paint dry, esepcially when I've got a stack to build. I did tilt a couple of stallers yesterday, though, simply by...

A great thread, guys. This is exactly why FTR rawks. Thanks for improving my bubble play.

Does stalling in an MTT annoy anyone else as much as it does me? I get absolutely steamed when I'm on a table with 3 or 4 stallers more concerned with making their entry fee back than building their...

I'd argue that it's not the same. In an SnG I play so tight early that I sometimes don't see a flop until the blinds are 25/50. That's mostly because I'd rather the idiots weed themselves out(or...

Sometimes you just have to make the tough laydowns. :whistle:[/quote]

I like digital docs post here.[/quote]

I think he's probably kidding. That said,...

AA is a pretty remote posibility unless this deck has 5 A's.
A8 also beats you.[/quote]

I thought about this later and felt stupid enough without it actually being pointed out. :oops:
