Pregame thoughts

Since I haven't posted at FTR before now, I had absolutely no idea about
who the seasoned players were. The only read I had that wasn't directly
related to the actual game, was Pulpstar's avatar on PokerStars, a
picture of his girlfriend. It made me assume that he was a somehow new
player, and therefore wouldn't do anything overly advanced. Please
change your avatar to a cartoon or something that

During the initial phases of the tournament, my goal was to
avoid risking too much of my stack, so I would have enough to be a
threath when the blinds got big enough to steal. The "no risk" strategy.

Starting thoughts: I did not have a definite game plan, I thought I would
see how tight/loose the table is and play the opposite. The fact that we
started 4 handed pretty much has thrown any tactic to the trash can early
anyhow.

- Damn this thing started shorthanded. My brain is hardwired to think we're on the bubble and blinds are only 10/20! Sucks that TLR is on my right, he's a good player and I know he will be playing LAggy. Pantz is likely to be a little weak/tight (FTR has beaten most of the loose/passiveness out of him lol) so maybe I can steal his blinds. No idea how Sigurd plays. Bugger the time difference between Europe and Australia, I rarely get up a 5.45am so I'll have to try hard to play my A game. I just don't want to embarrass myself by crashing out before the tables even come together!

Once the tables consolidate:
- Wow, Trip is sitting out, that'll be some nice overlay. Don't know much about Pulpstar to my right. re84uk is likely to be a bit tight. I need to watch out for Da GOAT, we've been exchanging HHs so he knows that I will push a wide range from the button, I need to be a bit more selective what I push here. Glad I'm not to his left though, he shoves a very wide range.

Right I have a problem here, all the other players are better than me I haven't even hit the 60 mark in SnG's played so how am I going to win? I feel my only chance is to amass a bit of a stack to take into the later stages because when it gets to push fold all the others will be more adept at it than I will. The table will probably be mainly tight so I will try to play a bit loose and hopefully I can get paid off on a big hand. I will try to observe the people immediately around me although I am not very good at making use of reads to adapt my own style, I pretty much just play my cards pf. Beyond that I'll hope for good cards and a prevailing wind from the Isle of Luck.

Let the games begin!!

Standard preflop and on the flop.

We're short handed at the start which I wasn't expecting, just have
to try to adapt. I call the raise looking for a set but am not interested in contesting
it beyond the flop at this stage.

Taipan raised the first hand, and we are 4 handed, I thought I would
try to feel how aggro he is today.

QTs on the button 4 handed is worth a raise, I also wanted to get a

Standard at a short-handed table. I could have just
completed I guess but I prefer raising. Plus it's kind of hard-wired into my
brain to be aggro when it's 4-handed!

Standard fold. I thought I'd try to be a bit aggro from
the button but I can't call this.

I don't really have a read on taipan yet, but I
assumed that he is a competent player, and could therefore be betting a
lot of hands that are worse that a pair of jacks in this situation.
Reraising also sends a nice "don't steal my tiny blinds"-message (not
that I expected him to listen)

hit a nice hand. In fact I do get the flush draw but Taipan is not interested.

My raises were respected so far, so I kept raising semi-decent hands,
I had to respect a reraise from Taipan here, and I had crap, easy
fold.

TLR had started off the game very aggro, I think his HUD
stats at this early stage were like 40/30. Given I was OOP I wanted to take
this down now. If he re-raised me I would have folded.

I wanted to see how Sigurd would react if I completed.
Now I know. It was worth 10 chips to find out particularly if the table
stays shorthanded for long.

I think that taipan is trying to find out if I will let
him limp from SB. I raise becaus I don't want him to limp.

Forty and Sigurd seem quite active, Taipan and I much less so.

pants called a raise and a call, it can be a lot of things, but PP is
very likely. On the flop with no piece of the flop, possible flush and 3-way
I am done with the hand.

Maybe I should have raised here. I guess that since I
had a bad position, I chose to call. I would lead here, but since there
are 3 clubs, I decided that I would just check-fold (I just didn't want
to risk a big portion of my stack)

I'm getting 3-1 with my 1 gapper so I take a flop. I doubt that
board paired anyone plus if they lack clubs they are stuffed so I take a stab at it and
manage to take it down. I really don't know if this is sensible play but it's the kind of
thing I like to do.

4 way AQ is worth a reraise, plus I wanted to define my hand, Tai's
call meant for me a decent hand but nothing that dominates me, I c-bet and
Tai folded.

Once I raised, I have to call the remaining 80 chips, I
have implied odds to hit my set. When TLR leads big on the flop I know he
either has a missed AK/AQ or a higher pocket pair. Time to GTFO.

Quite a small re-raise from forty, seems to want action.

Once Tai called my PFR, I thought he would probably bet anything if
checked to him, so I went for a chweck-raise bluff.

This was bad play by me. Pre-flop was standard I think.
On the flop, I should have just played this for set value and should have
been very suspicious when a good player like TLR checks after raising
preflop. I suppose I've been too used to the low buyin donks who will raise
preflop and check/fold to a bet when they miss the flop. Grrr I burned 120
chips for nothing.

I make a pretty speculative call OOP and decide to let it go even
though perhaps the odds indicate a call. Forty is aggressive again and wins a nice pot.

I'm a bit intimidated by Forty and don't fancy myself in
a blind war against him so I just check. The flop brings a flush draw and I
decide to check behind to avoid being C/R and missing my chance to make a flush.
A second check on the turn by Forty practically forces me to bet though, I have a
pop and he folds.

I raised here more then the standard hoping it will induce some
action, little good it did me, so far I am getting great cards and does not manage to make any
profit off them

I suspect that Forty2u has a hand here. I would have
folded this even if I were 90% sure that he had junk, I just don't want
to take risks at this point.

Strange sized raise by TLR from the button. He either had
complete trash or a monster hand.

I ususaly dont raise mid pair from MP, but table was tight, I thought
I it was worth a raise, since raises gets a lot of respect here

Given how LAggy he has played so far, TLR could be
raising with a wide range here, but he did raise this from MP and he will
know to tighten up now the two tables have come together, and I'm OOP. I
don't like how AJo fares against his potential range, I can let this
go.

This is a nice hand on a loose table but this table is so tight - so crap piece of junk

Since the table was tight but many hands were raised preflop I
thought about limping, then decided its not worth it

I think at this point my HUD was showing TLR at 41/34.
Now that's LAggy!

Pants was tight, and this moves usually work, once I was reraised I
am done with the hand

Again I just call PF and am delighted to flop 2 pair. Forty
bets straight into me and I decide to be straightforward and re-raise 3times. He
folds and I win a small pot. I could have just called but I doubt I'll outplay him
and there are straight possibilities.

Should have folded this. I imagined the table (once it
had merged) to start off quite tight so decided to raise here.
couldnt call the reraise. put reraiser on 99+ A-Q+. He also had position on
me post flop which I didnt want. easy fold.

I reraised to isolate and define my hand

I'm pretty sure that Forty2u has some kind of hand
here. I don't think he would reraise a relatively unknown player without
something good.

Well I'll call hoping to hit trips, flop comes - unlikely he has a pair so I'll stab at it - obviously fold to the raise

Here I decide to see if I can just call and use position. Again
I flop 2 pair and get bet into. I hope that because of my previous re-raise a second
re-raise might get less respect, but it's not to be and Pulpstar folds.

I have odds to call, but I don't want to get
involved, since I will be very afraid If I flop 2 pairs and get my
raise called, and then I will be in a situation, where I really don't
want to be this early.

Does Sigurd think I'm stealing or does he have a hand? I have no
idea but if he does have a hand it's probably beating me so I fold.

Given the action pre-flop, there is no need to get carried away with TT here. Just call with good odds and see a flop. If its favorable I'll take it from there.

I've hit my set on the flop. I tend to lead my strong hands so I just bet out about half the pot.

With RandomHero83 displaying a tight nature, the range I put him on pre-flop is AJ+ and 99+. With his raise on the flop, I can probably narrow that range down to AA, KK, QQ (less likely due to the Q on the flop) and AQ. There is a small possibility of a semi-bluff such as AK or AJ but this is unlikely as I have shown strength leading into this pot and with players active behind.

Normally I would push all-in over this raise, however what with facing tighter and better players than I encounter at my usual limits, I elect to just call and get all my chips in on the turn.

The turn is a bad card for me (I remember saying "yuck" out loud :P) now KK beats me and AJ (though this is very unlikely). I have so much money committed to the pot that I simply believe I can't let this go and shove. Oh well nh gg .

Standard PF raise. got 2 callers. put them both on mid
PP maybe A-K. re84uk's bet on the flop made me think A-Q, 9-9, J-J, Trip
10's. Q-Q, A-A would have reraised PF.
decided to reraise as didnt think he had trips and when he flat called I was
certain he didnt as I thought he would have reraised then. K on turn was
superb
Easy call when he went all in. knew he didnt have A-J for straight. was
surprised to see trips when he flipped.

With having doubled up I was hoping to sit back for a bit and see how others
played.

I respected the raise from Hero, but I had position on him, so I
decided to call and see what happens, once we got into a 4 way pot in a flop
with 2 overs I am done with the hand.
I was surprised that re84uk raised it on the flop and did not let hero do
the raising

If I were re84uk I would probably have checked to
RandomHero, being fairly sure that he would raise, and then, depending
on the size of his raise, either call, reraise or push. In a normal
game, I would just raise, but here I think that the tables is so tight,
that there is a pretty big chance that everyone will fold.

I really don't like re84uk's call, when RandomHero makes it 600. I would
definately go all in, expecting RandomHero to call.

Interesting hand. Random Hero has been playing very tight
so I know he has something good to be raising here. I say his range is JJ+,
AQ+ - so unlikely he'll fold to a re-raise. TLR could be calling with a
wider range so I just flat call in this spot. On the flop, with three tight
opps seeing the flop I check and see what action ensues. Easy fold with that
action after me.

I thought re84's flat call of Random's raise was interesting. I probably
would have shoved in this spot, not that it would have made a difference to
the result.

I pick up a nice hand but am faced with an early raise and a call
so I reluctantly let it go. Given how things panned out I'm glad I did! Very bad luck
for re84

Ok table is quite tight so I may open up a little

randomhero made 4xBB got 3 limpers. RR on flop is a bit small, now I see it meant strenght.

JTs - Nice hand has potential folded round to me so I'll try and steal with it, repopped - suddenly it looks like the crap it always was - Noted celtic has repopped me twice now so I'll raise him next time with the goods and push over the top

AK RR- usually id just call in a normal SNG but I have Pulpstar as a PSER so I have a much better hand aginst his range and again I want to drive down his aggression. And allow me to make the c/b if he calls.

marginal call preflop, but I like to do it sometimes, since JTs is a
hand with some potential that it is very hard to put you on,
plus it sends some message about blind defense.
The flop was either very good or very bad for me, depending on whether or
not pantz holds an A. Once he checked the flop I decided to take a stub at
it, I dont mind getting called, because I have lots of outs now

I'm using connectors to randomise bluff raises but the flop gives
me the fear and I don't make a c-bet and Forty takes me off

I don't really understand why Pantz don't make a
continuation bet here, he made a preflop raise from UTG, it would be
pretty plausible for him to have an A or a K. Forty2u does a good job of
representing an A or K with a middle kicker.

Right well we do our usual nicey nicey PF play and I bet my middle
pair after Forty checks to me. However he pulls out another check raise. I'm
getting pretty nice odds and his previous aggression means this could be a move so I
call. I'm scared of a straight though or trips. The turn gives me 2 pair again! But
the Q is also involved in straights, I'm still not sure I'm ahead so again I just call.
The river bet is quite weak from Forty but I decide that if I call and lose I'm still
in ok shape and if I win it's already a nice pot. In retrospect I think I played this
badly, I was playing scared rather than being aggressive with a good hand. Opportunity
missed perhaps. If I had to guess I'd say Forty put me on a flush draw here.

I totally screwed this one up, preflop call was standard for me vs a
tight player, mid pair + gutshut heads up is not a bad position to
check-raise
once I got called I thought I am either ahead and he is drawing, or a little
behind and can push him off the pot.
So I bet the turn, got called, this is where I should have given up on the
hand, but I decided to stub the river and got burned

I don't understand the flop action. Making a tiny
check-raise with middle pair just seems so weird. I think that I would
have reraised the turn or river, if I were Pantz, but I understand that
he didn't, Forty2u does behave pretty weird in this hand.

Maybe I should have folded this from EP on an aggressive
table. 22-55 I definitely would have folded here, 66 is on the margin for
me. I don't have implied odds once TLR raises me.

Interesting how aggro TLR is playing. I think his stats
at this point were like 42/33. I think on a table of squeaky tight FTR
players this is a good strategy.

This is probably a standard button steal but I'm not
going to defend with a crap hand like A8o. Plus my stack is getting kind of

<3 this hand - 1 limper so raise is 4* BB - DREAM FLOP - I'll check it, don't want to scare Forty off with a bet here - note in a game with reg donks I would bet it here. Turn bet of 3/4 pot - trying to make it look like TPTK where I checked the flop for pot control purposes. On the river his bet is nice and allows me to push over the top so hopefully he will call.

I should have folded preflop. I was prepared to fold to a c-bet, but
it never came, I interperted the turn bet as an attempt to
buy the pot so I decided to go for a call and then a river raise to try to
take it down, apperently I was wrong or outplayed. i got myself to be short stacked, time to tighten up a bit

Folded here as was OOP.

Pulp no c/b? turn delay c/b=strong???

Probably a pretty marginal raise but I'm not as active as I would
like and the table is pretty tight.

Thought about calling here but was easy fold this
early. chances were oppo had Ace with better kicker.

Betting, just to bet...
Getting called, which is pretty annoying. I guess that taipan has
atleast something. I don't want to fire a second barrel with blinds this
low. It could have been a stop and go, could have been him calling with
a middle pocket pair/high cards. I honestly suspect that he had AA and
wanted to suck me in.

When looking at the hand again, I get the feeling that he might have
called because I was "too" aggressive.

Would be interested to see Sigurd's comments here. I
think he was making a standard button steal since he knew I had folded to
button raises the previous times. I thought about pushing over but I didn't
want to risk my whole stack with AJo at this point with blinds at 25/50 so I
elected to just call. If blinds were 50/100 I would have instashoved over.
On the flop, I missed and I don't want to lead into him in case he raises me
so I just check. I was quite surprised when he checked behind, did he think
I was going to C-R? On the turn, standard lead when I hit the A.

sigurd check flop = weak

76s I blew it here because I was typing notes. I should
have folded or raised.

74o-sigurd didn’t bet flop so I read him as missing it based on action last hand. Plus turn couldn’t help him.

I fold 33 here, I could probably have seen the flop if
I limped, but I wouldn't get paid off.

If I had been one spot further along I would have raised
this for sure. Maybe I could have since I'm effectively in the CO with Trip
sitting out but TLR is likely to call me (or push over) with a wide range,
if he does after I've raised I might be priced in to call. I wait
here.

I'm fairly sure that Forty2u is stealing here.

I think I'm being pushed around, I should probably use my stack
against Forty but I have no real experience of doing this. Just put him all in?

As I had been tight up until now I thought about
raising here in LP but thought against it. Not sure why I didnt as I like
these hands for raising in LP.
In a normal $5.50 I would have raised here no problem but I think due to the
calibre of player in this game I decided against it. should have just gone
with my instinct and raised.

I wanted to see if I could get away with stealing with
a min bet.

I've got position and odds to call and am probably ahead here - by the river I think I am only getting called/pushed all in by better hands so no point betting for value here

Noted here that Sigurd min raised in SB with junk. I
think the min raise was supposed to rep a big hand, basically saying he
wanted action.

I don't really like the king on the flop - I think he has it

AT hand=Pulpstar again. Im not reraising him again since he well knows I can do it but im still not putting him on a strong hand so ill call know plus ive a good stack. Flop is actually very good for me even though I didn’t hit and unlikely to off hit him so ill bet out trying to take it down. I bet enough to chase out draws (if he calls im not putting him on a draw because I don’t think anyone will chase without the odds in this game). Im not c/r’ing because I don’t wanna bluff with even more chips at stake, just a sly bet out when only a K or better can call.

so I just folded. Maybe a limp would have looked like a big pair trapping though...

Bald-faced steal. It's effectively from the button and
Goat and Random Hero are playing tight.

Taipan had been playing tight up until now. put him on
a hand in the following range based on his play so far and his position -
10+ A-J+ A-10s

Could have raised this I guess but it's a little bit too
early position for me.

Hoped for a cheap flop and then see what happens, maybe take it down
with a bet on the turn if flop checked

HU I usually bet flops routinely, I don't think I have much image
at the $5.50's. Here though I will need to be more self aware I think

AJo - not the best hand, definitely not the worst. I think players here will fold to a raise because they aren't idiots that like to see the river with KQo AI preflop. I have position and take charge with this raise - I might fold to a push though, have to raise enough not to pot commit myself

*

Steal getting raised. I'm pretty sure he would fold if
I pushed over him, but I just don't want to risk it.

I had been fully aware of how tight I had been up
until this point. I didnt expect any callers as a raise from EP from a
player who has been tight suggests a good hand.
Thought about min raising but I just hate that play.

Randomhero UTG raise, GET OUTTA WAY!!!!!

RandomHero is a pretty tight guy, and he is raising
from early position. I don't want to mess around with AQo here.

Super easy shove from the button into one active
player.

Nice steal.from taipan here. The chances of him getting
called is pretty slim. From now on I have a great deal of respect for
taipan, and I really really really hate my position. I don't look
forward to stealing his blind.

K9 steal pf, flop is good vs. his range so ill c/b no problem.

Easy call with A-Q on the BB. I thought this could
have been a steal attempt as Triptanes was sitting out and raiser only had
to make me fold to get the blinds.
I should have bet the flop as I didnt think it helped oppo. was quite
annoyed at myself for not betting the flop and putting pressure on
oppo.

My min raise gets no respect. I want to see the turn so check hoping
for a check behind but Sigurd easily shuts the door. Maybe I should have bet.

I called to signal that I don't fold when SB makes a
min bet. If I fold here, I suspect that he will be doing this again and
again. I min bet on the flop to make it seem like I'm trying to milk him
with an A.

Pantz pf minbet=weak, no c/b=weak

Low M, tight table, I did not like the fact that there was a limp
before me, but I think it was worth the risk

Thought about calling here but hand range I put oppo on
was 50-50 which I wasnt prepared to risk so many chips for.
the risk wasnt worth the reward but il be interested to see what oppo
had.

88 easy laydown, UTG limp from a very tight player and im sure TLR knows this and still pushes.

RandomHero has a good hand, or at least I think so.
Well, forty2u has something pretty good here. Pocket pair A/paint. It is
possible that he are faking it since he knows that RandomHero knows that
fourty2u will put him on a big hand.

Same again. Super easy shove. The only risk is that Goat
knows that I am shoving very wide in this spot but I doubt he'll want to
gambool with half his stack with A-rag, KT or the like.

Another steal from taipan. I can't remember if celtic
has lost his connection yet. If he hasn't it is a good move.

Low pair in EP==fold

Thought about a call here as I had position on the
raiser. however, oppo had been playing tight and so I thought a fold was the
best option.

Taipan can push here but still just raises??

Making raise 2.5* BB now - has same fold equity as 3* and commits less chips/hand

I'm seriously considering going all in here. I really
think he could be trying to seal from EP.

PUUUSH with 66. I thinking that pantz is on a steal. He
is taking forever to act, which supports my "he is stealing"-idea. Also,
I think there are an added chance of him stealing since I have been a
bit weak untill now.

Damn. He doesn't have to make a move so I have to credit him with
a good hand TT+ AQ+ so I fold.

Tai and Pulpstar have been very tight, so I thought I have a good
chance to pick up the pot, and if I get called I may be flipping

Argh really not sure what to do here. I have a pair which may
well be winning, however there are still 3 people behind me. In retrospect I think
I should have pushed but I will be interested to see the HH

I like these tens here - raising them seems the best policy - I am calling an all in here

Oh dear, another re-raise and it looks like it wants action. I suspect
a higher pair although a strong ace is possible. On balence I decide it doesn't look good
and fold again. (pattern emerging) Suddenly I feel on the back foot

Random is really playing too tight IMO. His HUD stats
were like 8/6. Maybe he just wasn't getting any cards but I would have
raised TLR in his spot as it seemed that TLR had tightened up as he waits
for a spot to push.

Should have put in a raise here to try and take
blinds. A lot of times I think I was reluctant to raise for fear of a
reraise for some reason.
my M was around 17 so I had a lot in my arsenal but I chose not to use it.
definately should be raising hands like this from button with such a good
M.

Should I just be pushing into him?

Again I maybe should have raised here. I was CL
however and was happy with my stack.
I think I didnt want to get involved in too many confrontations just yet,
hence the very tight play up to now.

*

I'm thinking of pushing if there if someone try to
steal the blind.

In retrospect I'm not sure A small is a good hand to be raising with

Pantz is betting 250 instead of 300 this time. Why,
why? I made the reraise all in last time, so I'm not going to consider
doing it again, just out of principle. I could get some chips by going
ultra-super-LAG right now, but I don't want to take that road just yet.
They would pick up fairly quick and call me with decent hands, just to
avoid have their blinds stolen all the time.

I think this was really foolhardy for me to push. I
should have just flat called in case Goat came back and woke up with a hand,
if he stays disconnected he and Trip fold to me anyway. It was the longest 2
minutes of my life!

Taipan is obviously stealing form celtic and tripanes,
who are both sitting out/disconnected. Even if celtic were here, it
would be a pretty good move, since taipan is a bit low on chips. I might
add that the disconnect protection gave celtic 2 minutes, in which we
couldn't chat, beacus taipan was all in. That was boooring....

I move all in because I don't want to bet something like

much any flop.

I really want to push here, but I can't against
fourty2u, since he will be forced to call. I suspect that his motivation
for raising 450 is that he know that the rest of the players at the
table know that he is basically all in, which will make us think "Why
doesn't he go all in to begin with?" The obvious answer is "Because he
has a monster hand, and wants to have someone push all in", however, I
think that forty2u is thinking a bit further (I had him down as a good
player, and my first throught was that he had a monster), and doesn't
have a monster here, but is just on a regular steal. But all this
doesn't matter, since I don't want to risk more that half my stack.

This is a strange raise from Forty, he seems sqaurely in push/fold
land. Is it begging for a call? I toss my KJ

He raises me again and I decide I've had enough. Bad call brother!
Out I go. It was fun but at the later stages I felt very outclassed. These games are
-ev for me no doubt. Still I look forward to studying the HH and hopefully learning a lot.
Well played everyone, see you next time.

Pantz was getting reraised a lot lately, about 1/2 is stack is gone
in raising, getting reraised and folding
I thought he has to make a move at one point or another, so I did not give
him credit for too much of a hand

I really didn't like this push over by Pantz. Sure TLR is
raising a very wide range here but given the stack sizes he is priced in to
call if he's got anything like a hand. Plus Pantz is really not that
desperately short if he lets this one go. Sucks for him to have to shove
into the big stacks though.

I think it was a good push and probably also a good
call. I assume that I would do the same. I'm pretty certain that both
fourty2u and pantz will write some stuff on why they played as they
did.

I'm actually not sure if RandomHero is making a move
here. He hasn't played for a silly long time. He could have had a
cunning plan to just fold forever and then start lagging it up
now,hoping that he will get away with more.

I almost never limp AAs, but there were almost no multiway pots so
far and I was UTG so I decided to limp.
On the flop I thought I have to end the hand right here

Forty's call seemed very suspicious. Had to bet TP on
flop, knew I was beat when he reraised as put him on Q-Q+

TLR's UTG limp raised my eyebrows as soon as he did it.
He's hardly limped any hands, I was pretty sure he had a monster hand here.
I actualy don't mind this play since at this table he won't get 3 limpers
behind.

This hand really irked me, I just didn't think before
folding, this was a good shove with any two cards. Random Hero was playing
so tight and Goat will fold for sure so it was like a SB/BB shove into a
tight BB except with Goat's 100 chips to sweeten the pot. Grrr. Missing
shoves like this is why my ROI is not as good as it could be.

I think I'm ahead here preflop - And so I want ot get my money in with fold equity

Thought oppo had a mid pair or A-8+. easy call I think.
unfortunate that he had better kicker than me.

AJs, insta-push in this situation. I think taipan will
call with a lot of hands that I'm ahead of.

Hmm Maybe I should have called this - It was a huge bet though for his stack size so I think he was very strong - Aces or kings maybe QQ , AKs

I'm pretty sure this was a steal but I don't have much FE
against Pulpstar since he is big stack so have to fold. Plus if Pulp has any
kind of hand the best I'll be if he calls is a 60/40 favourite but I could
well be a 30/70 dog.

Sigrud was pushing a lot, I thought he would push with a wide range,
and probably call with strong hands,
so I was confident that I am at least flipping if not ahead, and if I take
this pot down I am in a very good position to win it all.
The other reason I decided to call is that with Celtic getting blinded out
and Tai being short stacked, I thought
that Sigrud thought was that he can get me to fold with anything but premium
hands, too bad it did not work

My steal-push backfired. I were very certain that he
would fold. Fortunately I hit a full house.

Nice read by forty2u here, was surprising sigurd was in with such junk

Aproximately 3 seconds after I pushed the all in button,
it hit me that this was silly risky. But on the other hand, calling my
all in would also be VERY risky. Forty2u will be all in next hand, and
Celtic will also be forced all in very soon, so if Pulpstar and taipan
fold this hand, they are pretty much guaranteed to finish in the
money.

I don't want to race off all my stack on a flip

Sigurd goes berserk with the big stack here. Great play.
At this point there's no doubt I have to play for 3rd with TLR and Goat
almost dead.

Apparently I was pretty proud of this push when I made
it. My plan was probably to push Pulpstar out and then loose to forty2u,
so the boubble will be preserved. upon thinking about this, I come to
wonder why I would want to push Pulpstar out. Maybe it was so taipan and
fourty2u would have pretty even stacks, and I hoped to be able to keep
pushing and picking up blinds.

If TLR doubles up agin I am potentially in bad shape
because his stack won't be much shorter than mine.

I need to start gambooling hard here as the short stack.
I would shove over with a wide range even with no FE here but T8o just isn't
strong enough. A-anything, K4+, Q8+, JT+ I shove in this spot.

Nothing else I can do here. Sure Sigurd is going to call
me very wide but I can't fold here. GG.

Nice push from Taipan. I have just shown that I'm
slowing down by folding a hand. Also, this is pretty much the only
chance he will get at hurting/denting Pulpstar or I.

I didn't bet the flop, planning to represent a
slowplayed A. I then reraise him 2000, so he is pretty much forced to
make a decision to go all in or fold.

This attempt to bluff on the turn was probably so obvious because I took an age to think about it - I think he slowplayed an ace on the flop personally

I'm getting short now, I need to draw a line in the sand here and A3o is good enough for me here

I push, since I want to look like I want to scare him
off, so the chance of getting called is bigger.

Okay now for the politics;

I would like to note the following ppl for their special participation in this project.

Flyingsaucy for the concept,
Xianti for organising the games
JeffreyGB for pissing off pokerxfactor to ensure creation of future experiments cuts down on labour hours by 1000%
Courtiebee for sorting the presentation on our forum (aswell as sticking it all in the beginners corner)

and of course thanks to all the players involved in both the Euro and NA experiments who took time out to play,review and discuss.

I hope these experiments will help any players new to the game aswell as any current enthusiasts.
