    Hand 27-eww

    52s hand is trimmed, second hand in. what was the action there?

    hand 28 - eww,but id like to know what you make of opp

    hand 33- is horrible!!!
    Jman: every time the action is to you, it's an opportunity for you to make the perfect play.

    Yeah hand 33 you shouldve folded in my mind. You knew he was calling you and its likely your only small favorite. I think if you fold the twos, you can still keep getting him to fold a lot of hands and then you can get an A high against his q or K high...i think you played well though and got unlucky initially to even let him try to comeback after the double up

    Maybe was a bit much considering stack sizes. Standard raise or fold then?

    Something wrong with the trimmer, he shoved and I folded

    Well, he had shoved the last two hands folded to him and before it got to HU he showed he knew how to push/fold, so I figured A3s was ahead of his range.

    Is it really? Firstly, I do think I have some FE (he thought about it for a long time before calling) and secondly I'm a 50-55% favourite against most hands and only dominated by the PPs. If you look at the HU tables any pocket pair fares very well against random cards at showdown, no?

    Hand 27-first hands HU i want to get a feel for opp. theres plenty of time to play. I think you risk too much vs unknowns here. Ive always stated that im better at HU SNGs against most opp's so i wont take very marginal spots vs them coz they WILL stupidly get themselves in even worse spots.

    hand 28-is another example. the only thing we truely beat is K high. PPs and other Aces dominate us. again a marginal spot i wont take, theres stilll plenty of time to make better EV moves.

    hand 33-this is the first time he minraised PF which set off alarm bells. ill raise with 22 but im folding in this spot. Again this is too marginal.

    22 was bad imo, any time someone displays behaviour out of the norm you have to take a step back and think.

    I think Goats points about time to play are very good.

    UL btw.

    I think folding in hand #33 sucks. There's a lot of money in the pot, he's folding a lot of the time, and you will usually be a small favorite when he calls, so gamble.

    looks fine to me. never fold the 22, I don't even think it's close. You need to start those HU matches with goat at 300/600 so you can destroy him. Plenty of time?
  11. #11
    Hand 27 - i wouldnt really go allin there, just do a raise... and if he does a reraise i would fold it. I would even mind folding that hand preflop. That is what i would do with that hand. Is the kicker that matters here ...
