Tourney 1:
Hand 2 (KQo) - Man, I was really proud of how I played this. I bet flop when I'm likely ahead, check turn because I dont want to play a big pot with TP2ndKicker, then value bet river. Theory being a lot of hands that fold turn will call a river bet without the threat of bets to come (yeah, I just finished NLHT-T&P again!).
Hand 4 (AJo) - Meh, I'm ambiguous on this one. I'm not so much scared to c-bet that flop, but just iffy about c-betting into two callers. Turn bet is easy, and if nothing else looks like a better hand (as Fnord would say "Its a trap!").
Hand 7 (AKo) - This turned into a bit of a mess. I actually considered limpers stack size when deciding to raise instead of push, specifically to avoid a stop'n'go type situation, but then I pick up a 2nd caller who bloats the pot enough to make it a fairly valid line. I thought long and hard before folding, but I could fold an have 15 BBs or call and have about 7 if I was wrong.
Hand 9 (A9s) - Read here, villian limped weak hands and always folded to a push. Handy read that came in useful a number of times after this.
Hand 12 (AQo) - I hate this hand, no solid reads so I think this is an easy fold. Plan was if I hit an A or Q I get it AI. His small c-bet gave me pause, but I decided it looked more trappy than weak.
Hand 14 (ATs) - I probably should have just folded here. I dont want to push over with my stack, but something like a 4xBB raise gets me into awkward spots with my stack as well.
Hand 15 (K6o) - Hard not to be results oriented on this one. I figured better K's that he'd actually play he'd either raise UTG, or raise my flop bet, so I was fairly sure he was drawing or had a PP lower than a K and read my hand as weak.
Hand 23 (7Js) - Bad plan executed worse. I read his min-raise as likely a monster, so only called hoping to hit something really big and stack him on a hand he couldnt get away from. I honestly didnt even remember leading flop, cant give any reasons why I thought that was a good plan...
Hand 25 (A7o) - Nope, this guy was transparent. He limped a lot, raised the very best hands, didnt call a single push all game. Umm, one I think with 88 v's a VERY shortstack. Easy push over here.
Hand 27 (T6s) - Yeah, easy fold PF, told you I wasnt on my best game. If nothing else, didnt want this guy stealing with min-raises from the button all the time.
Hand 34 (KJo) - Borderline, but I'd been fairly quiet UTG, and the BB was super-passive.
Hand 35 (A5o) - Thought about shoving, decided to play one a bit tighter incase he either was trapping, or figured out he could trap me if I made this move too many times.
Hand 44 (ATo) - PF I limped because I wanted the shorty gone. Definately should have bet turn and probably river though. Those were mistakes, I think limping was fine though.
The button in general - I really didnt abuse the button as much as I might normally have against two shorties. I kept hoping they'd get AI against each other, but they were so damned tight/passive.
Tourney 2.
Hand 4 (KJo) - Yeah, this was totally read based. The round before in the BB I had A9o and he raised 4xBB. I nearly restole there, but a rule of thumb I use (wish I could remember who passed it on) is that 3x might fold, 4x wont. Then in one of the later hands he raised 3x and folded to a push. Other than when someone entered in front of him, he'd raised every button to my BB so his range was fairly wide.
(TAs - CO) - I was borderline on pushing this or not, wasnt sure how EV it is. I'll have to play with some numbers in SNGPT.
Hand 7 (A4s) - Same opp as hand 4, I knew he'd be raising wide here, just happenned to have a decent hand this time.
