my sunday warm up run
First I thought I should post this into MTT forum, but I saw that this is the place for higher buyins. But this is more cash game oriented forum so mods can move it to MTT if they want to. So this was 215$ buyin Sunday warm up on Stars. I actually bough into it with FPP's, so it was some kind of a freeroll for me. This is my by far the biggest tournament cash, so I will do analysis of it, because next time when I make the FT, I want to win. I made some mistakes in the progress, did some "wrong things at the right time" so that's why I am posting this, to help me improve my game plus I figured it is probably interesting for some people to see how to luckbox to the FT of a major tournament. There is about 100 hands here so it will take probably 20 minutes for you to skip through it. I have an advice for the lazy ones (I don't blame you) - just look at the hands with my commentary. Every important hand will have some commentary by me. I won't comment on blind steal hands, pushbots and that stuff.

9. ragamuffin44 (United States) $5,062.20
I am by no means a great tournament player, but I will explain my thoughts, so it might be interesting. If you want to see a HH win from a great tournament player, search for Chardrian's win a couple months ago. It is a great analysis. However, let's get to work.

Bandit55688: doesnt show hand Here I make my first mistake. I have no reads on villain, so I shouldn't even call preflop. However, it is not a bad board to c/r bluff, because it likely didn't hit him. The problem is that I am representing a very small range, so if this was my current 1000NL cash game, people would float me, reraise or make any kind of a play on me. However, MTT players don't play that well postflop, so I made a move. It is not a bad move, but readless and at this blind level it is not good. The reason I did it was because I was steaming from 100$ buyin tourney I busted out in first level when I lost with top full against quads (never happened that to me before) - AA on 4Ax4 board, the guy has 44.

Here, my computer freezes so I have to restart it, that's why I am folding all those hands. It was the only time in like one year this has happened and this steams me more than losing a big pot on a bad beat. I was just furious when that happened. I guess it was because of a PT database not being compacted. I didn't want this to happen again, so I played the rest of the tournament without PT running.

ilresl: doesnt show hand Completing in SB is marginal and probably neutral EV, but multiway this is not the flop I was looking for. Some players would bet here, but I think this is a leak and that c/f is the best play here.

gobboboy collected 13924 from pot A9 is definitely ahead of his pushing range so I call and suffer a beat. It was interesting how many beats I actually suffered, because at the end, I only remembered my suckouts, so I was surprised when I looked through my HH. The secret is to suffer a beat against shortstacks and suckout against big stacks. That's how you go deep into the tournament.

the_bankace collected 6650 from pot The guy was shortstack, it only costed me like 1/5th of my stack and Q9 is probably ahead of his pushing range (which are almost any two with his stack, I guess). This might be a horrible play by me, or at least very marginal. I would appreciate some comments on this hand.
