Overall comments:
- You missed some open raise spots from the button with half decent hands. Particularly if the blinds are tight, I tend to be aggressive here.
- I think some of your bets were too small. In general you should be betting between 50% and 100% of the pot depending on flop texture, whether it's a value or bluff bet, etc. No point making a tiny bet of 20% of the pot, you need to ask yourself what is this going to achieve?
- In these small stakes tourneys I think you need to raise a bit more than min, if you're bluffing a bigger raise will generally get more folds, if you have a decent hand you want to build the pot more.
- Sorry to be harsh but hands 12 and 14 were bad mistakes, honestly if you did nothing other than fix the leaks in these hands your ROI would probably improve markedly.
1. AJ - personally I just fold this to an EP raise. Reverse implied odds on an A or J high flop can be pretty bad here.
2. AQs - bet a little more on the turn, 1/2 pot seems good. You are giving opp correct odds to chase a flush with your small bet and it also screams weakness, inviting a raise which you can't call.
3. AQs - flop is a good spot for a c-bet. It's a safe flop for you and you'll most likely take the pot down without a fight (or get called by worse and take his money if you hit an A or Q on the turn). Definitely bet the turn as played, but after checking behind twice I think you have to fold the river.
A 9 CO (Hero's M = 31.78; f+f+F+f+f) (between 3 and 4) - could consider raising this
4. KK - raise a bit more preflop. 250-300 seems good. You want to build a big pot here. As played, 1/2 pot on the flop is good, or you could even check behind since this flop is so safe in the hope that opp will bluff the turn.
3 3 Button (Hero's M = 20.40; f+f+F+f) (between 4 and 5) - raise here
5. K5s - guess calling is OK since you're in position, the other play would be to shove back if you think he's bluffing.
6. A9s - raise a little more, make it 125-150 to go.
7. AQs - as per 6, 150 to go. As played, definitely raise the flop, you have two overcards and the nut flush draw so even if opp has 9x you're still a favourite to win. I make it like 450 to go and call a shove. Otherwise the rest is fine, except that I wouldn't leave yourself with 5 chips behind on the river though, there is a non-zero chance that you accidentally fold if he shoves over (believe me I've done it).
K 7 Button (Hero's M = 17.87; f+f+F+f) (between 7 and 8) - raise this
8. KJo - fold preflop from UTG when the big stack is in the BB. Also as per the other hands above, if you want to raise then make it 250 to go not minraise.
9. AKs - 250 is plenty rather than 300, keeps the pot a bit smaller. As played, your c-bet is too small and invites this kind of raise from opp, with a pot of 650 I'd bet around 400 to maximise your fold equity on this missed flop.
10. T2o - raise or fold preflop, this hand is pretty much worthless postflop unless you get a miracle flop
8 A Button (Hero's M = 13.20; f+F+r+f) (between 10 and 11) - definite raise preflop
11. K9s - as per the other hands, 250 would be better than 200.
A T CO (Hero's M = 12.20; F+f+r+f) (between 11 and 12) - I'd raise this 2.5x BB
12. 99 - wow, definitely call the shoveover, opp could think that you are trying to steal the blinds and would definitely shove over with worse (think smaller-mid pocket pairs). You even have odds to flip against overcards so you're really only fearing TT+, and he definitely shoves over with worse than that. If you're going to fold 99 in a spot like this, what hand do you need to call? I think that this is where you lost the tourney with this bad fold.
K 6 Button (Hero's M = 5.47; f+F+f) (between 13 and 14) - most probably a shove, I haven't run it in SNG Wiz but I think it's close
14. 65o - I think you're probably tilting a little here by minraising then folding to a shove over. This is a definite shove or fold spot and I would probably just shove it. This is really bad to piss away more than 20% of your stack by minraising then folding to the shove over. This mistake also hurt your chances in this tourney.
15. ATo - I probably wait for another spot unless you've seen opp be very aggressive with the big stack, in which case it's fine.
