Re: JJ hand with limpers

In post #11271748, I described a similar situation with jacks. I was told to push too.

The small blind could be completing with anything, and the other stacks are so short that any raise you make...

Re: PS Turbo, shove-steals at 50/100 through 100/200/25

Ask and you shall receive.

OneTimeVil hasn't done anything outlandish. Every non-blind hand he's shown down has been ATo or better. Everything he's shown down has either hit the flop or hasn't...

PS Turbo, shove-steals at 50/100 through 100/200/25

I tend to find myself stuck with 1400 plus or minus 300 midway through a turbo SNG. Maybe I've won a small pot, maybe I've lost a small pot, maybe I've just been bleeding blinds. There are usually...

PS $3.40, not getting full value early

This post has two hands, but the theme is the same. I'm not sure I'm getting full value out of strong holdings.

This first hand is the very first hand of the tournament.

$3.40 PS defensive check

OneTimeVil hasn't done anything out of the ordinary -- won a couple of small pots to be slightly ahead. I haven't done squat, which is why I'm slightly below a starting stack.
