Default Re: All in with two pair in SNG - good decision or not ?

Preflop, you should not play Q9o UTG 6-handed. It's a weak hand, and you are not in good position. You will lose money consistently when you play Q9 there. If it doesn't jump out at you as an odd play, then you are probably playing much too loosely.

23o ... maybe .."jumps out at me as odd" at this stage of my poker (non) knowledge [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Beyond that, I usually don't play anything lower than about JTo, and then only if no one has made any extraordinarily large preflop raises.

Q9o ... 9o is about the lowest I'd go with Q. And also that was based on my stack at the time, wasn't being totally dominated. Does that make any sense ?

What about my stack relative to # of bb's at that point (~15) ?

As I really don't know what I'm talking about at this "embroyo" stage of my poker career, I welcome any and all commnents.

What is a coordinated board ? (two pair, with different hole cards, as I mentioned ?)
