It's a good shove probably, but it might be better to raise non-ai, which leaves you the option to fold against 2 shoves b/c you're shortest and A4o sucks hard 3handed vs strong ranges.

I'd definitely fold A4o in that spot, in such situations it's best to go into a folding war and let others do mistakes (both of you have very small chance of winning at this stage, if it would be 1500, 4800, 1500 you can still win if you double up and then the shove gains future EV).

Think about the situation - if you don't shove, the SB will shove ATC, and if the BB calls there with A7o he is probably flipping for his tournament life.

BB is also covering you, so if both others go all in with you in the pot it's looking very bad for you. That's why what LeaksSuck said, if you decide to go with a hand here, don't push it, just raise to 900 or something, so the BB can't overcall too light with broadways if the SB shoves over your raise (because you still have the threat with your option to fold). You are making the spot so much tougher than for them.

That's the wrong approach. Just because the SB should not fold any hand doesn't mean he is actually gonna do this. It's the same wrong thinking as "My bluff was good here, he should not have called with 3rd pair obv". It has a huge impact if there is a reg in SB or some rnd who has a folding range.
You can play with calculators to find out how different opp ranges affect your opt. opening range there. I guess for likely scenarioes it's hard to make A4o a fold, but it's not impossible.

Yeah. I have to admit tho, my 9man game is rusty and I maybe shouldnt have used such a strong language, because I feel A4o is around the bottom of our shoving range.

That's too general a statement. Expected "Mistakes" of opponents can also lead to making it better to call/jam wider ranges than gto.
Example:
In the above hand, imagine the big stack is some rnd who likes certain cards and dislikes others, not very adaptive to a specific situation. That's an observable trait of a decent amount of recs. So if he somehow likes top 30% of hands and minimally adapts to the situation by jamming 35% on the other shorty, he is gonna walk him 65% while he should walk him 0% in GTO. Now ceteris paribus, jamming wider than gto (or better: in the same spot with SB jamming 100% and calling your jam with his actual calling range + identical bb calling range and future ranges etc. pp., not gto) is optimal. And: Always remember that u got other options than openshoving as well. And be it just raise non-AI to keep the option to fold after two jams. Poker not that easy
Fwiw I've been in a lot of spots like this where I judged opp ranges s.t. folding A4o is indeed opt. In way more spots where I found it opt. to jam tho, it's pretty much auto-jam if sb is a decent reg. And if he is a tricky dude and you're about even in stacks with the other shorty, there might be future spots where cl can abuse that by walking the bb once to keep pressure on you.

I was a small stakes super turbo grinder on Bovada, but when they took away the super turbos I switched to 6 max hypers. Still learning and wondered if anyone knew if this video pack was any good
http://sitngogrinders.com/video-pack...sng-video-pack

$40 seems pretty affordable, but I don't want to go and study something that is far too out dated and end up making my game worse. Thoughts?

Without having actually seen the content, very likely to be outdated.

Haven´t played poker for 7-8 years. I used to grind 9 man sng before. Used to play on fulltilt and partypoker.

Where is enough action to play 5-10 tabels at one time, and good bonus/rakeback?

Pokerstars are not possible for me.

Hi guys,

I saw in videos that some players when they are multi-tabling, they have a circle around the mouse pointer. It helps for the visibility because you can easily get distracted while playing on many tables. I wonder how they did that? I didn't find that kind of cursor in windows.

That circle is drawn by recording software in the video file, it doesn't appear on the player's screen during the recording.

However, it's also possible to customise the actual mouse cursor. See instructions e.g. here or here (for Win 10).

Hey All,
I've recently started playing the 6 max hyper turbos on Bovada Ive been break even for 500 games now, which i know is a small sample, but I'd really like to start studying and make an effort to learning more than just the basics. My problem is there is SOOO much information and I really dont know exactly where to start

Is it possible to have a long term SNG ROI of >40% if the field is really bad? I've been playing $1 SNGs on a really soft site and it's pretty hard not to at least min cash unless variance does its thing and you have a bad beat or a cooler.
I haven't done any proper tournament HU study yet but most people there just want to GII with random junk and gamble so I feel like I have a decent edge there, even without HU specific study.
I have a good ROI over about 100 games which I know is a lolsample but is it at least some indication for a "true" ROI? Or have I just been running like God?

Imagine if in these 100 games, every time you shoved with the best hand, you lost. Your aces got cracked, etc. I'm telling you this because it will happen, and when it happens, your roi won't be 46% anymore. It doesn't mean you suck and you were only lucky, it means you're playing good but variance is probably on your side at the moment too, which explains this high roi over a small sample. Go for 1k game and then you can judge enough. gl!

where people trade their Tournament dollar from pokerstars?? any reputable and reliable sites??

There's a T$ Marketplace on 2+2.

I'm not sure if this is the right place for this question, but I've been unable to find any answers anywhere, so if this question has been answered elsewhere I would appreciate being pointed to it.

I just started playing microstakes hypers on Ignition, and I'm trying to find a way to get my HH's into a database so I can study spots and review my play without having to troll through the text documents. How can I get my HH's into a format that I can import them into tracking software (FPDB is what I was using before with bovada but that was last year and even then I'm not sure I had it right). Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

In 25bb SNG early levels (10/20 and 20/40 with 500 chip stack) what is the general approach when calling in position, for example in the BTN vs a CO open, what hands are we doing this with and what is the goal? Why aren't we 3betting?

Do you guys know any way to automatically change the color of different type of sngs? The stars client only differenciates tourneys, sngs, cash, ko, etc, and not like 6man, 9man, 18man etc

I know nothing better than changing the color of each table manually when the tourney starts. (I reprogram my gaming mouse so that its right button is mapped to the hotkey combo that I assign to the fold button in Stars' client, while some other button of the mouse is mapped to the right click, then I can use the latter mouse button to 'right-click' on the table and change the carpet.) It's enough, though. The color is preserved if you're moved to a new table in an MTT / MTSNG.

Setmining with low pkt pairs for example. With premium hands u should raise, but with anything else its ok to call. Minimising variance in your Chip Stack in early Levels. If u double up early u dont double the money ull make on average (ICM). Not an expert in these, I usually play 9-max Stts with 1.5k chips, but I guess the reason is the same

They're hypers. Starting stack is 25bb. I would not recommend set mining.

So u would 3-bet with 22/44 after CO opens and u are in the BTN ? Didnt knew thats the best play. When the big blind checks u have a 3-way pot so setmining doesnt look too bad for me.

Hey guys , what do you think about the 6 max hypers these days?Do they have value?

Hi, I have a question regarding a hand in a 1.5$ regular speed stt. Blinds are 25/50, a guy minraises pre flop to 100, I have KsKc and reraise to 400. He calls. The flop shows something like 8c 10c Jc. He checks and I move all inn (around 1100 on a 900 pot) with my overpair and flush draw. He shows AcQc and wins.

Was this the correct move on this board or should I maybe have bet lower on the flop and folded to a reraise?

Hi guys, i'm new to STT.

Is there some kind of guide about how to review hands?

Like, what to push or call on a given situation..
