    Default $5.50 Tourney for Review

    I'm pretty sure there were quite a few mistakes in this SNG. I feel like I played pretty poorly during the SNG and looking back now still feel the same way. Since I've been out of SNG for about a month or so, I feel I'm missing a few +ev spots I shouldn't miss, and making a few -ev spots I can't afford to make. Any critque here will help get me back on the right track playing a better SNG game. Thank you.

    Overall I can't see too many problems to be honest, well done on the win. Your preflop hand selection is pretty good as is your aggression. Perhaps the only comment would be to watch out for getting called wide after you've shoved a lot, although it's not guaranteed they may well notice and call your shoves.

    Any hand I don't comment on is fine.

    1. TT - Level 1, in EP and with a limper in front I limp as well and play for set value. At higher buyins where raising might either buy you position on the limper or get to the flop HU I think there is more value in raising, but at a $5.50 where you're likely to get called in multiple places and then play a big pot OOP I limp. As played the rest of the hand is obv fine.

    A T CO (M = 17.27; f+c+c+f+f+F) (between 4 and 5) - good fold I think

    5. AQo - shove over is absolutely fine I think.

    13. K8o - I would be careful about shoving here. You've shoved a lot over limps and (if they're observant) they'll realise that you can't have AK every time. Nothing wrong with checking once in a while.

    3 4 SB (M = 8.12; f+f+F) (between 16 and 17) - I like this fold given how much you've shoved SB vs BB.

    18. T5o - hand is fine, but I bet you didn't expect to win at showdown!

    HU section:
    - Wow, opp really is a limptard, that's terrible that he keeps on limping despite the fact you keep on shoving over.

    28. K9s - I'd shove this for sure. As played, not sure I like leading on that board considering it's drawy and there are two broadways on the flop.

    29. K9s - I shove back again.

    32. Q6o - now I don't like this one. Although I don't hate raising here, I'd just fold the flop since I'm not sure what you would like to see on the turn. As played, I think I just check and call with odds and get it in if I hit on the river.

    Thanks for the look through.

    Regarding the final hand (Q6o), I wasn't a fan at the time and looking back didn't like it either. The flop raise was somewhat of testing to see if he would fold to that sort of aggression, as I didn't suspect him to have an Ace due to him not raising/shoving preflop. On the turn I hit a good draw with a flush draw and a belly buster straight draw. The pot at this time was 3200, and figured if I was going to bet here I would just go ahead and put the entire pressure on him (which called for a small overbet to put him allin).
