Nice toasty. Cracked a needed laugh from me. :lol:

Yeah, I agree with playing a game you are comfortable with. Once you get enough hours in, you will get an intelligent idea of your rate.

If...

In lower buy-in amounts I tend to agree with your post avatar.

haha sympathy or not - it goes along way!! :lol:

Had to post this:

Well, I had another large tourney today, and I was feeling pretty good heading in.

I had a beta chip on fulltiltpoker for trying their site out, and entered the freeroll. I...

AQ is an effective allin play in an SnG where the blinds are 4 to 6 times the size of your stack. I pretty much agree with everything you say in your post.

I was comparing an allin bet of AQ when...

Thanks for tying both our posts together. I see his points, I just don't think that it could relate to my post.

My feeling is, why risk AQ allin when (against a decent player) you only going to...

Spell check would be wonderful. I always make typo's and my spelling is that of a 4 yr. red headed step child.

Well, to be correct - you would have to go all in with those hands. If that was the case, your heads up play wouldn't be very good IMO, and you would be easy to defeat.

Oh yeah, I would like to...

I think the answer depends. If you think you this guy can eat you up post-flop, move in when you think you have the best of it, if not see some flops to take him out. Patience is a must in poker.

So, I entered 3 large tourney's last night and didn't cash in at any of them. I was around the bubble on 2, and should have never played a 3rd one in the wee hours of the night. Plus, I think I...

No defense is needed for me. I respect any person's game, and judging by your posts - you're not just anyone.

I will say I do judge hands on the information I see, which isn't always all the...

This a pretty difficult question to answer. I think the best answer is...it depends.

I have thought a lot more about when to raise from the BB, and am still having trouble figuring out when it is...

thanks toasty :)

They are in there, I believe back a few posts. They are not actual results because it wasn't a real hand, just a hypo. situation.

Ok, here is what you do...

Wait until you get rockets preflop, and once you do. Fold them to the limpers, yet stick them in a special muck pile.

Once the hand plays out, announce you folded...

Are they constantly raising/rerasing after the flop and preflop. Or is everyone just limping?

I don't agree with your preflop bet based on your stack size. I like to be able to get rid of my small PP's if they don't hit. You stack size definatly justifies limping in IMHO.

But, if I bet...

147 ( 120+27 )= 147

nevermind, didn't read the example -

Is it a trick question??

6 - would be my answer if it was

Not sure if you were talking to me Toasty??

I was explaining how reraising a heads up hand preflop as the only way I could see this hand working. Which I don't do though.

No, I don't see how...

Well, since I don't see any positive way of playing 72o under most, and probably all situations in the long run, I agree with the majority of the voters. I think a few got confused and answered with...

Why do people play 72o??????????????

I am trying the poll thing out, don't flame me if it's all F'ed up.

Anyways,

I am trying to see if anyone can explain how 72o could be playable in ANY...

I agree that the blinds are a way better position than UTG. It just sucks when you hit a good flop in NL with your junk in the BB, and you don't know what to do.

Eg. (You are the BB)

you have...
