Thanks Robb

BR is currently $122, played a few 18 & 27s this weekend.

Two spots where I felt a little unsure tonight:

Villain here is 31/5/1.8 over 65 hands. 6 left, top 4 pay. This guy is often aggressive on the flop.

MP: 3,029.00
CO: 3,920.00
BTN: 1,346.00
SB: 7,679.00
Hero (BB): 5,060.00
UTG: 5,966.00

MP posts ante 25.00, CO posts ante 25.00, BTN posts ante 25.00, SB posts ante 25.00, Hero posts ante 25.00, UTG posts ante 25.00, SB posts SB 150.00, Hero posts BB 300.00

Pre Flop: (600.00) Hero has 7 7

fold, MP raises to 900.00, fold, fold, fold, hero???

And this one, a few hands into the FT and I'm looking for a spot to get it all in. The SB was moved there 5 hands ago. He raised from utg and got the blinds, no other info at all.

I was ready to snapshove till the 3bet.

Note: I never actually snapshove, it's an awful timing tell that far too many people give away. No matter how sure you are, always pause for a second or two before you act.
