10 seater SnG



Hand #7 your thoughts of checking the flush
Hand #30 really wanted to fire a bullet on the river
Hand #61 if no caller I can bet, but the call reduces my true odds
Hand #65 didn't feel like bubbling out of position
Hand #80 no comment
Hand #87 gotta love the big chick

Hand#30, board looked pretty scary. I'm thinking only a Donkey would fire a bullet on that river... ;)

Hand 80, is soo you, what more can I say?

I like the replay, great learning tool. You should do this more often.

Oh, and congrats on the win :)

Nice show. I'm a little surprised at how passive arrow is heads up.. You had the luck flowing in your direction on a couple of these hands.. the 7,2 especially... questionable call on flop with KJ but the turn bailed you out.. Big laydown of AK to arrows push.. but you were probably up against a pair of 10's or jacks so there was no use putting your money in without a made hand at that point, especially since you are most likely more skilled then most of your opponents at this $ sit and go. what is this a $2 sit and go? Thats where I ussually run into arrowman. All in all well played.. tight as hell early then loosen up and get more aggressive as blinds rise.. a recipe for success in most sit and goes.

other then the 72 alby, I am not to sure the hands your talking about
and yes it was a 2banger, was teaching a student how to fold, teaching position
low level SnG's are the best to learn folding

I spend most of the early part of the game establishing a table image while learning what everyone does with their hands
a lot of my effort goes into the first 5 levels watching.

as for him being passive heads up, I think he was to busy calling me names after the 72 hand
lots of swearing in the chat after that hand and after game, worth the price of admission

the thing is with that river is I could represent so many different hands to bluff with
any Ace X, 5, 84... if it was the Ace of diamond I would have fired a barrel forsure

Hand 80, is soo you, what more can I say?

Okay.. so far I've watched it up til' hand #7. We raise preflop w 97s and we flop a straight-flush draw.... why aren't we betting this flop? We raised preflop, got 3 callers, flop a MONSTER Draw and we check?.. and then c/c
why?

Also curious... why are we even bothering to raise here with 97s preflop in 'early levels' when the blinds are not worth bothering with?

Hand39: KJ OTB 75/150 on 14bb's we open limp?? Why? I believe HighBlindLimping is a big leak. I think we clearly want to raise to ~400 here in hopes of taking down the blinds (and obviously folding BB's hands that could hit a miracle flop)

Hand 56: on the bubble and we decide to raise Utg w 7-5 while on 10bb's... why?

Hand65: We check in BB w AJs to Utg Limper.... why not shove over this open limp here?
(there actually seems to be ALOT of open limping on the Bubble in this SNG.... just seems like many spots where one could be taking advantage of a leak like this.. HBL's.. "High Blind Limpers")

Hand72: We check in BB w KJs when SB completes... again.. why don't we shove here? Then we call flop bet w air? (what's our intention here?.. float and take it away on turn even if we miss?.. bet a scare card?... hope to hit one of our 6outs?)

Hand74: we fold ATs OTB??... another clear shove imo

Hand80: We raise 72 ITM w a SS on SB? SB is in bad shape and is getting 2.5:1 if he gets his stack in here, meaning he'd be doin' ok to do so w a wide range. Are we hoping for SB to fold, knowing it's very unlikely that BB will want to play a pot with us with such a shortstack sitting in SB? If BB is a good player here though, don't they reraise shove on us? .. knowing we're folding out most hands.

Hand85: Why are we shoving the river here? Don't we want to extract value from some of villain's range here?
