Re: PS 5,5 - AQ Resteal with 12 BB
I took PokerSpiv's range, more or less, as a starting point, and looked at a worse case scenario, which would be the big stack calling with 100% of the hands he raises with, so you wind up with no...

Re: PS 5,5 - AQ Resteal with 12 BB
There's an article about restealing in last month's (I think, if not last month, that's close) 2+2 Internet Magazine you should take a look at.
In order to answer the restealing question, you need...

Re: PS 6,5 - AKs Resteal
If you raise, there is a chance the raiser will fold, which would be great. You would increase your stack by almost half at no risk. You would love not being called. You only have the chance of...

Re: 6.5$ turbos: Why do you push these 2 hands?

1. In Headsup as Bigstack, you basically push everything
2. If you have <10BB or SB has <10BB and everybody folds to SB and he calls you you push any two hands
3. If it gets folded to...

Re: 27T: Call river w/ TPTK?
I agree with raising more PF. Makes it easier to get heads up, makes the hand easier to play, and creates more value for a hand that's very likely good.

Re: 16T ok push ?

Good push. The BB needs to have a VERY good hand (QQ+) to call with the button having < 1BB.

Re: Putting opponents on a range, no reads
AT/88 is for sure +EV, regardless of calling range, even assuming MP likes to limp in with his strongest hands. I'm trying to figure out what hands are enough +EV to be comporable in terms of edge...

Putting opponents on a range, no reads
In a typical small stakes SNG, with, say, 7 players left, blinds at 50/100, everyone involved in the hand with between 12 to 15 BB's, someone from MP limps, SB completes, what range do you put limper...

Re: Stealing from the Big Blind
I think these are OK raises, from CO or button, with large enough stack size. If you make a standard raise and follow it with a continuation bet of 1/2 pot, that will cost 6xBB if it fails, so you...

Re: Stealing from the Big Blind
Some simple math. Say there's two limpers, and the SB completes. Your in the Big Blind, blinds are 50/100, with 1500 (1400 after posting). Say you have something like Q9o. You push.
Assuming...

Re: Stealing from the Big Blind
Conventional wisdom is when a standard raise would be about 30% of your stack, it's better to just go all in. That translates to 10 x BB against the blinds. In other words, if your stack is 10 x BB...

Re: Stealing from the Big Blind
Not sure exactly what you're asking. If you're asking about stealing with a standard raise, like 3xBB, I'd like to have a pretty big stack. If you have 30xBB, you can try a lot of different moves. ...

Re: Stealing from the Big Blind
I've tried it with 2 or 3 limpers. If you get too many limpers, then there are good pot odds to call, so you'd want a good hand in this case, since there's a pretty good chance you'll get called. ...

Re: Stealing from the Big Blind
So far I've just done it with better than average hands, so getting called by a small PP would be fine. My intuition tells me it would be profitable with ATC, given that this is your first move at a...

Stealing from the Big Blind
This seems to be very profitable to me. Say the blinds are at 50/100, and I've folded several dozen hands, and am down to 1300 or so, and a couple of people limp, so there's 350 or so in the pot. ...

I don't think what you wrote is entirely accurate. Both STT's and MTT's are about taking advantage of +EV situations. Because of differences in the tournaments (both...

Re: Grade the June Magazine
Thanks for the input. I've not given much attention to restealing. I just fold unless I have a really strong hand. I'm sure I'm giving up some opportunities in doing so.
What Colin makes sense,...
