I am also for folding pre and post. I agree with baudib that you probably just have the odds to call, but this early on, a treble up is not going to treble your chances of making the money. In the...

A new record 20 SNG's in one night !!!

Lost two games when used hotkeys on the wrong table, ended up calling 30bb all in push with Q9. oops. I thought i was on a...
Hands all look good, cards can be brutal. I might have shoved those aces pre when when UTG limp raised.
Just had a week off work. I have now got Holdem manager working properly at least HUD is working and hands being imported. I am not making the most of it yet. Its hard to know where to start...
Super motivation continues. Finally bought a copy of holdem manager last night. I had the usual internet problems. It took over 90 minutes to download, then the payment website wouldnt accept my...

bought SNGwiz, intend to spend 1 hour a day improving my push/fold game. I will be looking for patterns to help me...
I dont like this spot, Odds are good and you could be ahead as drmc said, trouble is its likely all the money is going in and you only have a weak ace. Maybe Extremophile is right, its a steal play...
turbo formats rely on a good push and fold game for a larger percentage of the tournie. If you play the larger SNG turbos you will quickly get to the situation where most players are short relative...

People do things for a reason, its just that poor players to bad things. Every action means something.
That min raise pre lets you know...
Hi daven, You are insane. I have just read your blog and you are in a different league to me. You play more hands in a session than I do in a month. You are going pro for gods sake!! I am one of...
I think i like the shove here. With an M of 5 you have to move, the blinds will be destroyed if tey call and loose. The button is chip leader but your stack is big enought to make a huge...
Not doing a great job updating this post. I am spending quite a bit of time on the grinderschool site. Some of the videos are easily worth the money. The Glitlr lectures were really good, sadly...
i think Im folding the first and shoving the second. UTG bet out for 2.5BB then got re raised almost 4 times his stack. I reckon at least one of these two has a decent pair so i think you are behind...
you are missing the point of the investment.
e.g. $11 ten player SNG, house gets $10, prize pool $100, normal structure 1st $50 second $30 third $20.
If the game was pure luck then over time you...
thanks for that Daven. When i am struggling for my fourth 10K i think i will be pretty happy!
Update. Joined grinder school, downloaded my first video. Fjuanl in an MTT. Will watch it tonight....
This is my second operation of the year, the first one ended in success when I reached $1000. My blog is really a diary of what happens at the tables and my own analysis of particular situations. ...
I think their are two points.
1. Coping with loosing in a big hand, that just gets easier and as long as your BR management is good you hardly notice it after a while.
2. You said you were...
