I'm not a tourney player so you might want to get feedback from someone who knows wtf they're talking about but 9's seems sort of marginal there.

Obv a pretty nice chip +Ev spot to take against his range, but I get the feeling in tournaments you want to win almost all of your chips w/o showing down.

Counter-point: After the bubble bursts is a good time to try to chip up to have a chance to actually tid when 5-20 probably pays about the same.

Also a contributing factor was: 2 day event, I wasn't going to get a hotel just to come back with a short stack.

And yeah, I can't remember the structure but iirc, 19-27 = $2338(my payout), 14-18 = 2580, and then from that point on, it went up a bit more each time someone went out.

idk there's two ways to try to chip up ... win a big showdown hand or start shoving a lot wider range from late position in unopened pots (even for the 4 orbits of card deadness before this).

No longer have any poker range comp software on my computer (thanks obama) but 9's seems a bit weak to trap.

You get dealt what you get dealt imo.

Honestly the extra night probably is what pushes it into a "try to showdown & double up" hand.

Also the open wider strat is more difficult on a loose table that's opening a lot which could have also been happening obv.

The main thing is you tried your best. So it doesn't really matter that you failed.

Opening wide is bad here. My table was 100% regs/grinders, I knew them all.

Yah $560 reentry.
Basically a rebuy, but you could rebuy if you busted and you get reseated.

Stakes too small ldo. Plus I was talking about people who don't believe in preflop raising. Or raising in general.

Does that really sound like me?
