I assume you didn't know where you were at in hand 1. That being said, I don't like the turn call. If you think the 5 hit him, fold. Don't bleed away your chips like this. I think you're ahead here, BTW.

Don't raise 5's UTG 7-handed. You have a big enough stack in relation to the blinds to call and play this for set value. If it folded around to you on the button I could see raising, but not UTG.

Hand 1:Looks like he is buying himself a nice flushdraw (AdKd, AA, KK?), push the turn...

Hand2:Good argument for folding 55 UTG taking into consideration ur stack size and the blinds.

[gabe]

push the turn in hand 1
fold 55 utg because the stacks aren't deep enough to play it

ps triptanes gives good advice

I was thinking a he had hit trip fives in hand 1. It was kind of a donk call. Then on the river when the diamond hit, there was no way i was winning.

hand 2: ergh, why the hell did i raise 55 UTG? Very dumb move.


And even with these two poor hands i went on to win the SNG. Oh i love those $10 ones.
