new tourney move

[bestcellar]

I use this in almost every tournament nowadays. Always works.

I call it the go-and-stop.

It's where I go all-in, and get called by someone who knocks me out of
the tournament. Then I stop playing.

Look forward to my book soon.

Gobbo has a move just like that, it's called the Go-Stop-Smash.

It's really more the "Go, stop, dammit I need another mouse."

[NinjaMan]

This is my most common move.

That's not a new tourney move, I use it all the time and in fact used it just yesterday in the Stars $215. I had about 5500 chips where 4000 was average. This one guy who my note now says "never folds" limped in for 200 for the zillionth time. I made it 800 to go with 89s. The flop came K72 rainbow. He bet out 200 and I made it 800 again and he called.

The turn was another K and he checked and I bet another 1000 and he called. River a deuce making 2 pair on the board. In retrospect, I should have pushed all-in as maybe just maybe I can make him fold but bet just another 1600 and he went through 3/4 of his clock and called and turned over 66.

So I [censored] ed up my Sunday tourney with an 89s miss hand. Brilliant. Then I proceeded to watch him never fold for the 30 minutes more that I lasted in the tourney.

You're confusing OP's move with the "this time he'll fold" bluff. Don't get me wrong, the move has merit and I use it frequently, but it does differ considerably from OP's tactic.

Either way, both plays are firmly entrenched in my game, and I'm constantly finding new ways to apply them. These, along with my favourite "check-raise into the nuts" maneuver make my advanced game what it is today...
