$5 PS - A couple of hands from the late game...
Played poker for the first time in around three months a couple of days ago, and made the final table in this tourney, which was nice. However, a couple of hands from late on are bugging me.

Re: 4/180 Should I wait for a better spot?
Nah, I'd get it all-in here. It's early, so there's a lot of bad players around. Unless MP2 has shown himself to be decent, I get my chips in here.
My guess is he's either got something like A9,...

Re: 4/180 35left 2pair against straight board.
Easy shove. Out of all the holdings he has that can beat you, I find AA unlikely. JJ is possible. 66 is the most probable. If he's an idiot then KT is also possible, otherwise, nah. I wouldn't be too...

Re: 4/180 JJ hand UTG First Post on MTT
Tough spot. Players at 180 level are pretty straight-forward, and he's representing something big. More often than not, re-raises at this level tend to be JJ-AA and AK. Given the fact that I'm out of...

Re: $4 180 Stars SNG
It's early on, and medium pairs don't play so well at this stage. Even though everyone behind you has folded, there's a good chance the people ahead of you will still call, especially a raise to only...

Re: $10 (180) AK facing UTG raise
After the advice I've been given on here today, I'd push. You really want to play your good hands strongly at this stage of the tournament, in order to make the top 3, where the money becomes...

4.40 Final Table, AK in SB, what\'s the standard?
Ehhh, what's the standard play here? I hate playing hands from the blinds, it's a bit of a leak of mine. Should I just call this and throw my hand away if the flop doesn't hit? Or just shove and hope...

Re: $4 180 stars flop the nuts how you play it?
Eh, I'd probably check-raise this if the table is loose/agressive, and hope for a bet from MP2 or CO, as there is a chance you could get the all-in on the flop or turn. This is read dependant though....

Re: $4.40: A6 Bubble
Yeah, looking back raising was a daft move. I just often find myself at a bit of a loss as to how to play against those who limp continually. I guess playing out of the SB isn't the way to go about...

Re: $4.40: A6 Bubble
Ah yep, I agree with what you both said. I like to be agressive on the bubble, but sometimes I let it get the better of me and orchestrate my own demise.
I keep telling myself never to raise in...

$4.40: A6 Bubble
So yeah, I like to try and get aggressive on the bubble to get a few chips. 20 players left. Table has tightened up. I figured I'd take this one down pre-flop. But it went belly-up. Let's see...

4/180 Critical Hand. KQ Situation. Call or fold?

Re: AK on the button - 4/180
Yeah, just push all-in. If you don't win, you'll be down to just under 3000, which is a still a great stack to have when the blinds are 15/30. Hell, I'd be delighted to end the first hour with 3000...
