not close, couple people on the IGN boards have over 100,000.

I disagree. If you raise 3xbb with a 10x bb stack you are going to get in a lot of bad situations on the flop with a 7xbb stack and a 6.5-7xbb pot.

If you believe 10xbb is too large for push/fold,...

Ring would improve your post-flop game significantly because most of the money is made because of post-flop decisions.

In Sit N Gos, the blinds are so high and the stacks are so shallow that there...

Ya, I have that same gun.

Not as fun as paintball, the bb's don't really hurt when you get shot. :/

How about the classic

'If you don't know, I'm not going to tell you.'

Hmm either way. More easy to fold 1010 here especially in a 5er even though you shouldnt base your play on the buy in.[/quote]

That statement, that you shouldn't base your play on the buy in, is...

A donk bet does not necessarily have to be on the flop. It is any bet that looks peculiar. A check/call on the turn then a minbet on the river.

I think that's the whole point of playing loose early, to hit your hidden two pair and stack someone off who can't drop KJ on J57 flop.

I think it's right to play hands like suited connectors or...

First off, players at $6 SnGs are not going to post-oak bluff. Especially not one with 50% vpip. If he bets every flop he hits, his check/call looks like a draw (at 50% vpip, he's probably too loose...

Umm..That's pretty bad.

Why call preflop? Your stack is pretty short, you don't have enough money behind to stack someone off chasing a flush/wheel straight. If you flop your ace, you're probably...

Definitely don't flat call in this spot, ever. Ever ever ever ever ever ever.

Keep in mind all of these decisions are preflop decisions. Before the flop decisions are very different from after the flop decisions in that there are really no end-all correct decisions usually,...

Definitely repop it preflop. You don't want to let speculative hands in for cheap preflop, because they will kill AK. Suited connectors, small pairs woudl be exactly the type of hand I would put vill...

He has position...I think it's a definite raise pf provided you can manuever and let it go after the flop if you miss. I guess this is the original posters call, but it seems to me like 2.5xbb at the...

300 isn't a big bet, it's less than half of the pot, but it's still a third of his remaining chips.

With your chip stack, it's either raise AI or fold PF, and that depends on how loose the raiser...

Do you know Joe Hachem?

Getting knocked out out of the money 5 in a row is really nothing, it shouldn't phase you if you are brolled properly. As long as you keep analyzing your play, you're going to be a long term winner...

Fold ATs UTG. Fold it when MP raises. You're going to be out of position with an easily dominated hand. It just isn't worth the risk early in the tournament. It is just too hard to win a big pot...

PF and the flop are fine. However, Opp limped on the button. He could do that with a lot of hands, 98, 22, Tx, pretty much anything. Two clubs is one of many possible holdings.

Turn lead is fine....

I would call PF and look for your set. When BB pushes, easy fold. Its too early to call AI pf with 88 (is there ever a good time?).

Played pretty weird by him. River bet is bad though, no worse hand is going to call you. Bet less as a blocking bet or check and reevaluate if he bets. As played, fold. An immediate call on the flop...

I limp TT and below in EP early on. Take advantage of the deep stacks and play for a set. I don't like the raise because I won't be able to play against KK/AA after the flop if I hit a set (because...

No real content here, obvious push. When you're AI pf, however, it really doesn't matter what order the cards come out. You weren't 'runnered'.

With 4 people behind you, the raise is margainal. Especially with the SB having 5xbb.
I think you have to call the push. You have way too much equity vs his range. Even if you're dominated by a...

Hand 2 you played really weird (the other two are judgement calls, based on reads, etc. AJ is probably too loose to call that, though. The guy is just barely in push/fold mode. He's not going to be...
