i dont like this one. reraise him preflop if you think hes stealing too much.
i definitely fold the 99. you aren't much ahead of anything, and you don't want a coinflip.
In general I agree with what you are saying with the 3J hand. But like I said it was based on a read. It was an obvious steal - but he would've felt compelled to call a reraise since he was now "invested." I only showed it as a play based on a read and I stand by it.
The 99 hand. There were two hands that beat me, 7 hands I dominated, and a whole bunch where I was a 55-45 favorite. I am not saying a fold would be bad here, but no way do I consider gambling here a bad choice either. If I lost I put myself in a push or fold situation. If I fold blinds soon go up to where I will only have 10xBB and I will be in a push or fold situation. If I win, I get to let others go at it and can strike back at opportune moments or with big hands. This was my only GambooL of the tourney - and sometimes you gotta gamble.
