Martin re: post 426

I like the first shove don't think I dig the second one as much. Youll see guys snapping off with a5s and such potentially making the shove very bad. I'd just fold tbh.

also, the 3 indicating he's only raising 3 percent hands prob makes it more likely hes going to be limping decent pps and other hands that kq doesn't fair too well against. if he was like 35/10 i think i like it better.

whats my play here? puke and fold?

if its a fold what is my calling range here with my stack?

Hawkfan, I'm never folding TT there. I'd prob fold 88, 99 is close. I guess it'd depend a little bit on reads/hud. I also call AQ maybe even AJs?

This shove wins a pretty good ammount of chips on avg in a random. Any ICM considerations?

Just noticed this thread, it's a good idea and I will be posting some hands soon. I am outtacontrol89 on full tilt playing the $6 and $13 90man KO's.

As I am on a downswing atm I was just wondering how large downswings can get at this level? Are $1000 downswings going to be experienced? Also, what sort of sample size should I get before I take notice of my ROI%? I am currently at 10-15% over about 750 games and I am sure it could be a lot higher..

ICM makes me fold the hand above btw ^

@martin depends on his calling range. noone here knows that. you can use JITxperts sheet to find out when it gets -$EV

I don't play them but everyone seems to say they are super soft so as a result I don't recall any mention of crazy ($1k) downswings but with 90 players Im sure its not impossible.

Post hands you have questions on.

$1.75/18 The BB is sitting out and loose UTG limps. If I fold (Im in the SB) UTG gets the pot. What range do we shove here? With ~10BB I folded but I think this is close.

On the bubble of a 2.2/180.

Is this too nitty?

id snap.
id prob fold 88 on the bubble.
TT too strong to fold to one person.

the money bubble in 180s is pretty meaningless. you shouldn't really ever take it into account unless you're super short and have no fold equity.

i would not shove too wide, because loose players will call you wide and sometimes trap. With 10BB i would probably shove 88,A9s,ATo without any further reads. If you have a read that he limps very weak Hands utg then you can shove wider of course.

Do you guys call in villains position?

If he knows you are a reg then it´s fine I think.

folding TT there is pretty redic, purely cos you absolutley smash his range, especially if he is competent and also. obv min cashing is important to maintain ur roi, but this is such a great spot to chip up so you can start throwing your weight about towards the ft.

villain is fried liver, a reg

Apart from the disgusting flop bet, was there really much more I could do about this hand? Thanks in advance.

1. is a call, the blinds+antes is ~1/3 your stack, and you very rarely get called by BTN, SB, or BB (they call with 99+,AQ+, or the top 5.4%, and you have an ace yourself, plus the guy who shoved has something, so very rarely do you get called by those left to act, something ~15% of the time)
2. is close, i'm guessing it's a fold. your stats on the guy are irrelevant after only 9 hands the fact you don't know him is not

shove?

2 folds, Hero's range is ?

If u would take into account that BB has a bigger stack than us and BTN is almost dead and will be the next BB.
So how wide should be push ?

Ty4attention

You should be pushing pretty wide IMO, the bb has you covered but by very little so he shouldnt be calling very wide. I would shove all aces most kings, pairs, broadway cards, and a few other hands like 9Ts J9s.

considering this is a 1$ sng, i say bet bigger almost all the time because they call everything. Raise more pre like 240 or more even, bet like half pot or little more on the flop, get it in on the turn. I don't think i would ever fold the turn there especially in a 1$ tourney.
