Sup guys, just checking in.
Not played much since half way through November due to bad downswing halving my roll and then new job which has left me shattered.
Played a bit today and a few days ago but less than 1k hands this month.
Need to shake off the cobwebs and clear a few FPPs to get a small bonus before the end of the month.

A few hands from today.

Good squueze spot I thought, can't really call or GII to check raise?
But villain turned out to be an uber aggro donk anyway.

^BB's a nit, I'd fold pre.

Milly stack update: 20k, 5440 out of 11k runners

I think BB's range is mostly big pairs and big Ax, especially since you said you were playing pretty tight so he's def not 3betting light (doubt he would do that with these positions anyway).

That having said, turn and river are wp. Pre and flop look fine too imo, but maybe others think different about that. Don't really get his turn check though... Maybe pot control?

Lol I feel so silly trying to comment on HH's like these. The highest mtt I've ever played was a $2.20 rebuy.

the highest I played before this was a $11 sunday storm, and I didn't know BRM back then so I was playing underrolled.

tbh, at my table right now, most of them are labeled as fish nits and I haven't seen a non shove 3b since registering. it's around the same level as a normal speed $2.20 pretty much as of now. like one guy just shoved TJo with ~12k chips from the BTN.

Im jealous of you table, my table now has mostly solid regs..
anyway: 56k with blinds nearing 500/1000 pos: 775/9.5k

Yeah that was me. we were involved in one hand where you completed with A4cc and lead into me (BB) and a UTG limpet on 873cc. I took it down with top pair since you checked turn with my 98o, but as I said I think barreling is best.

Looks like a call to me given the pot odds. We get 30,45% and vs QQ,TT,77,AQ,QT we have 32.28%

Just some line checks.

h1: Should we check here...?

Yea, i didn't barrel turn as had 2 callers to the turn and the 3 was a dead card. So figured i wasn't getting any folds and i'm behind most calling ranges and figured i'd get at least 1 caller to the river. If it was a raised pot then i would be inclined to bet the turn

Your check isn't bad given you got two calls. During the hand your range looked strong. I figured you would leave any over-pair that wasn't strong enough to iso preflop (88, maybe as strong as TT? Unsure how you play to UTG limpers), any sets, and a few semi-bluffs. The 3 is a pretty bad card for me in the instance that you're leading an overpair or set or anything considering I'd be drawing dead, which is why I would have possibly folded to a turn bet.

I'd definitely be betting if the fish folded on the flop.

Looking back at it I'm unsure if my turn and river checks are bad or not. 7x can get some value, but a fish is likely to even turn up with hands like K7s and such, so yeah.

Updates on the million?

750 away from the bubble, dillchips and yours truly are still in with 63k and 88k respectively, with blinds 1k/2k and average around 50k
Lets pwn that bubble!

Nice! Even if you only mincash, $269,25 is a nice reward for an ($xx,xx ?) satelite

Gogogo

Edit: btw, if anyones sn is outed, I wouldn't mind to rail a couple of hands

Yea i'm not completely any pair 22-66 i'm probably making it 3x because of the UTG stack size. My SB has gone from 18/13 to 12/9 and i only completed because UTG was 200BB deep.

I'd be raising anything decent 77+ , ATo+, KJo+ probably vs the UTG limp as they are easy enough to play OOP vs the UTG & MP. So most of my completely hands are speculative suited hands since i was 200BB deep vs 2 fish.

246k and 9th in themilly!!!!!!
edit: f2012 you can rail me: Fisherman FV

lol weren't you ****ting bricks when calling that river w/ 99?

Yes, but shoving with anything except a bluff doesn't make any sense there
