Yeah on hand 2 he had KK...and I just totally spaced.
The check on the river really got me. I mean I'm sitting here with a full house and he's going to check it to me and I'm not supposed to bet?

I mean clearly in this situation I shouldnt have, but also perhaps playing this tourney for 8 hours straight I just had a brainfart. Course not to mention playing for a few hours before this tournament as well. I think basically I need to take more time with tricky spots like this especially when checkraised/minraised, and after checks on the flop.

yeah, and fold PF too....ugh.

but when do you draw the line though? A lot of these aggressive players, and super aggressive players who are raising with a very wide range of hands in any position (myself included) just to take down the blinds. In fact I think oftentimes raising to steal the blinds in early position is more successful, albeit more risky because most players will give you credit for having a big hand.

also, hand 1 is really always a push?
I am usually pushing here because a lot of times this is a resteal, and with the stack sizes I have a lot of FE. However even against a very tight range where AK is certainly a slight underdog is it still a push?
