Guy was 30/10 over 20 hands , and on the turn he had 49 left.

Do I still have to shove turn?

I'm no cash expert but I think you're right. If he were deeper stacked, it looks like it would be a different situation. I'd like to hear other people's thoughts on this one though.

Re: STTF SNG->cash thread
 

Shove the turn.
He can fold better hands (unlikely, but some people think ZOMG four straight two pair no good) and he doesn't have a queen often enough to justify a folding.

Readless.

In these spots, do you c/c, c/r or open bet?

Karp

This hero likes leading out for 7.50.

Re: STTF SNG->cash thread
 

I open bet $8 on flop.

Assuming at least one caller, $15-$20 on turn, remainder on river.

If you were deeper, you might need to look at a check-raise or something here.

Re: STTF SNG->cash thread
 

I thought I'd bump this since there have been a lot cash strategy posts in the [censored] thread.

Also, I'm starting to learn cash, and like Karp, don't really like the uNL forum. Plus, this is the forum I'm in the most and I trust and feel confident with the opinions from the regs her.

Mods, is this cool if we bring this thread back up?

Hero best 7$.

Re: STTF SNG->cash thread
 

As played, I'd lead.

But, I'd often fold preflop depending on what UTG image is.

Re: STTF SNG->cash thread
 

That 77 hand, I'd usually check and either call or raise depending on how action plays out. It's a 4 way pot so sometimes things will go down such that I'd call, sometimes I'd raise.

Devin, don't you think leading into 3 others, 1 of whom is the preflop raiser looks ridic strong?
