Haven't posted one of these for awhile, but I think this is pretty indicative of my game right now. Any comments welcome. I'd like to know in particular how I could've pwned the final table a little better. Thanks for the help.

Highlight: in hand 23, that's the eventual winner folding to my shove getting 4 to 1 on the call! Fantastic!

Anyone?

Sorry for the delay, I'll try to get to this later today.

Sorry for the delay in getting to this. Overall, I think your preflop hand selection could be improved and you need to pay more attention to position. Hopefully specific hands will illustrate what I mean.

1. A9o - fold this crap from early MP, it's not worth it. The only hands I'm playing from this spot are 22-99 (for a limp for set value), TT+, AQ+ (for a raise) and everything else is in the muck.

3. TT - I think this is OK both preflop and post.

4. JTo - fold this crap. If it was suited, you were one spot further along and there was another limper in front I would limp too, but fold it here. As played, definitely fold the flop - although you have two overcards you can't be sure how many good outs you have here.

6. AKo - good shove over for isolation.

7. QQ - no need to get all tricky/trappy with this - I put in a good solid re-raise to 900 or so. The LAST thing you want is to get another 3 callers and have an A or K flop.

8. QJo - I'd fold not because I think we are necessarily behind the UTG shover's range but because of the other players still to act.

9. 88 - don't limp ANYTHING (unless you're trapping and I wouldn't do it that often) once blinds hit 50/100. You want to raise to ~700 or so here.

10. AQo - I'd make it 700 rather than 800 to go and stick in a c-bet on the flop of about 1000 or so.

13. K3s - I'm not folding this either getting 2.6 to 1 on the call.

A 9 SB (M = 3.80; c+p+f+F) (between 14 and 15) - may be a call depending on the stack size of and reads on the pusher

9 2 BU (M = 2.29; f+f+f+f+F) (between 14 and 15) - I think you have to shove this and either hope not to get called or to suck out

15. ATo - you obviously played it fine, but wow look at SALADES retarded flop bet - nice that he folded out one of your opps.

16-23. I think these hands are all fine, nice pushes/calls.

24. K9o - I know you're super short here, but I'm not sure that I would call this. Opp raised a pot-committing amount from UTG into two players who can hurt him, it'd be rare that you'd be ahead of his range. I'd fold it and hope for a reasonable hand the next hand or alternatively gambool it up when you have to the eat the BB.
