Re: Bluffing in SnGs

So, basically you are saying people should call SB raises and bluff A/Kxx flops? Ok, insightful post.
Also, I think punishing the SB limpers early in a sng is giving away EV in the...

Re: $16 - AQ bubble vs reraise
[ QUOTE ]
I don't see why there should be paranoia about ANY villain pushing ATC here at a $16.
I think open pushing is giving up value here, it would be ok with antes though. Well played OP...

Re: $16 - JJ vs raise
Call and hope for a low card flop or the J to hit. Play post-flop poker (granted position sucks big time). If you raise to 450 or so, you're effectively committed, even if a Q-A hits.
Note that...

Re: $16 - TPTK vs reg
[ QUOTE ]
if he's a good regular I can certainly get away from the hand. Even calling 200 on the flop isn't good I don't think. UTG lead is most likely 99/77/AQ/AK. I can't see much else a good utg...

The main thing I don't like about it is that the initial raiser has <10 bb's, and I think premium hands are a big part of a lot of people's range here.

Re: $10 Turned trips facing huge raise
Generally if I make a set/trips I'm looking to get all-in. If villian has 88 for the boat, then, well, time to fire up another game. I might get away from trips on a 4-flush, 3 straight with high...

Re: $16 - AQ vs UTG raising LAGG
First realize he's pot committed and thus you have no fold equity -- you must show down the best hand to win.
Second realize that while he probably has opened his UTG range, he's not terribly...

Re: fixed limit sit and gos
You can still find low fixed limit SNGs at Pokerstars. The players are terrible, absolutely terrible. I had something like a 40% ROI after a few hundred. It was not unusual to see at least 2...

At a 6.5 -- I'd call the lead (it was around a half-pot) and hope we get a check/check on the turn and often call a small bet on the river if the river is a likely brick.

What do we know about UTG? UTG could easily justify shoving here, yet UTG minraises. Either UTG is clueless or UTG is looking for action.
In the former case I think you can make an argument for...
