11$reg: Two last hands

[DonLigretto]

Hi

These are two last hands I dropped out with today in the respective SNG. What do you think about them? I think I'm getting to loose again since I drop out too early in these SNGs again. I just finished twice 7th, 9th etc.

I fold preflop in the 1st hand..My standard-raise is t200
Nice flop, so get it in..Anyone push preflop?

In the 2nd hand I raise to t280-300
The rest is standard..ul m8

Hand #1: fold PF. You still have 12bb and there are three people to act after you.

If you decided to play this hand (which is -EV, I think), then raising is horrible - you should push or fold with 12bb from LP. Also, when raising at later levels, 2.5x raise is enough to do the job.

As played, flop push is standard.

Hand #2: Standard. Yeah, they also hit sometimes [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Hand 1; Fold preflop

Hand 2: I'd not go allin until the turn in the hope of getting another bet in. Or were you sure someone would call your allin raise?
I'd bet about 400 there.

With 12-13BBs in hand 1, I'm not making any standard raises unless it's with KK+. I'm in push or fold mode but waiting for a good hand to go with.

Hand 2 is fine.

Hand 1 i fold with 12 bbs
Hand 2 look standard.
