    Fold. Again you're at best flipping unless he has air. Just maintain your stack.
    10-10-2013 , 09:38 PM
    readless is a fold, but with a clue that he might have some air in sb range (he should) i call
    10-12-2013 , 02:19 PM
    Call? No reads.

        How do you have no reads at that stage in the tourney? HU decisions are completely dependant on the player. I'd probably call because you're ahead of a lot of air (technically even ahead of hands like kqs since you're all in) and if you don't double up soon, you're going to have to do it with a tiny stack multiple times to get to a 27bb stack which requires a lot more luck than what you probably need here to win.

        No reads because it's a somewhat old hand that I don't remember, but I was still curious what the "standard" calling range was here.
        10-12-2013 , 07:19 PM
        well don't take my word on what's standard. That's just my opinion.
        10-12-2013 , 08:55 PM
        I understand

          you should have some reads here once we are heads up.

          calling unless he has been super nitty.

          is this normal ? 8$ turbo 180 only

          11-14-2013 , 07:10 PM
          yes
          11-18-2013 , 05:04 PM
          Hi, I'm new to 180s and have been grinding the $1 180s. I was wondering, if you had a 45% ROI and wanted to move up to the $4.50 180s, would you need to have a 10% ROI in order to be breakeven hourly? I'm using those ROI numbers to make the equation simpler.

          I figured .45 x $1.00 = $0.45 and $4.50 * .1 = $0.45. I didn't factor in the rake differences and understand it's a bigger risk to be a 10% ROI winner but just mathematically, would that be correct?

          The jump from a $1 to $4.50 seems huge for me and I don't see many other stakes for 180s so I am assuming that the player pool in $4.50 is a lot tougher than the simple $1.00 stake?
          11-24-2013 , 06:59 PM
          Best software for analysing hands in MTT's?
          I see 3 mentioned a lot: Holdem resources / icmizer / sngwiz.

          Mainly want to check if my shoves/non-shoves were correct or not.

          Cheers
          11-25-2013 , 03:20 PM
          HR or Icmizer, have heard bad things about sngwiz lately.
          11-27-2013 , 06:59 PM
          Where can I find some good strat for 27-man sngs?
          12-30-2013 , 06:37 AM
          To anyone beating turbo 180's at present.

          Can you recommend any up to date material (vids, books, posts/articles) for someone new to grinding them, not necessarily new to poker though.

          Cheers
          12-31-2013 , 07:42 AM

          that looks about a $2600 downswing over about 700 games

          variance at 180s is around 165 BIs over 700 games. @$8 = $1320

          every $1320 you are below your expected profit over 700 games is 1 standard deviation

          so for example if you are a 20% ROI player that would represent close to 3 standard deviations below your expected $1120 profit - about a 1 in 700 chance

          What betsizes are y'all using for turbo 45 man sngos?
          01-16-2014 , 05:34 PM
          Previously I played husngs, but switched to mttsng and started grinding them a coupe of days ago. I started with 18/27man 1.5$ reg speed on Stars. I also have some games rush on demands 1$ (some 4s also) and I was wondering which is better to build some roll - 18/27man reg speed 1.5$ or 1$ ROD ? Or this is just a matter of preference?

          Villain is reg $4.50 180P
          Villain is an 8/7 VPIP/PFR 144 hands 18% of steal

          What range of call of hero?
          What range of push of villain?

          In That hand it is call or fold?

          02-12-2014 , 08:55 PM
          Fold. Vs his range our call is certainly not +EV having over 14bb. I would go as far as to say that KQo is even close vs such a nitty steal%, especially if hes scared to shove more than 10bb, what alot of nits are. His range is probably something like A5o+, A2s+, 22+, QJo+, JTs+, ...
          Regs in this game are certainly not the loosest, but 18% steal combined with this VPIP/PFR is way too tight for me to consider him a reg. A nit, yes.

          Everyone folds to the CO (Vpip 25%, PFR 5%).
          CO (t1415) calls the BB.
          Everyone folds to Hero.
          Hero: Check.

          Flop: 459
          CO: bets t300

          What is the best way to play here?

          This is the first hand I post so if I made any mistake please explain what I did wrong. Cumps.
