    Default $1 Full Tilt, playing too tight? Any missed opportunities?

    Hey everyone, played a $1.25 at Full Tilt this morning and it just seemed like I wasn't getting anything to work with. Kinda frustrating after I was dealt 72o, 72s, 68o around twenty times last night in the same game (i'll look that up later on the other computer). I ended up folding or checking my way into the bubble and just going into push/fold mode when the time came. Somehow I hit the money on both but got knocked off.

    Here's the tourney: http://www.flopturnriver.com/Online-...ment-4315.html

    Did I miss any opportunities here?

    I also pulled some selected hands that I wanted some opinions on:

    Hand 9: I bet 2/3 pot (but shove pre flop, and not because of the hand but because you have some folding equity on lennon)
    hand 11: I think I check shove or see a free card.
    hand 12: I fold ( unless I know the limper will fold a limp, then I shove)
    hand 15: fold
    hand 23: I standard 3x pre flop, as played I make 300 on the turn...also as played I fold to the river bet
    hand 27: I shove when he limps...as played i bet 300-400 on flop...as played I bet the turn...as played I check down river.



    I think you are playing wayyy too tight in the final stages. I would be very aggressive . When the blinds get up I almost never limp a hand, unless Im trying to change things up a bit....
