    Default Advice: Room for Improvement ($2 + $0.25 SNG)

    Posting this because I feel like it represents my average play, and looking for ways to improve... General advice good, or but especially comments on my play from the SB (where I feel like I spewed the most and/or got run over the most)?

    2. 96s - I probably call his donkminbet to at least see what he has. There's also some chance you have the best hand.

    3. You played fine, but the player with the trip Qs on the turn very likely slowplayed himself out of a big pot.

    4. AJo - I don't hate raising preflop here, but with your stack size I probably just call and see a flop and get it in on an A/J high flop.

    5. J9s - with your stack so low, I don't even bother completing the SB, you need to preserve chips. As played, DEFINITELY bet the turn, with three opps in the hand with you somebody will call a 150 bet and your hand is actually quite vulnerable to another broadway card or heart coming on the river so you don't want to give a free card. On the river, I bet more (at least 180) - if they'll call 120 they'll call 180. You could have won a much bigger pot here but the best way to do so is to BET.

    8. Q8o - flop bet and turn check are both good, now call the river since opp will bluff with a lot of hands you beat and you're getting like 3.3 to 1 pot odds.

    10. A8s - personally I dump this from UTG

    11. Q8s - guess it's OK from the button with blinds low, fold is super standard obv

    12. A9o - again, I probably fold this from UTG particularly with the big stack in the BB. As played, you can't fold top pair, if you're beat that's just too bad

    13. AQo - perfect, except I would probably raise 300 rather than 3x BB to keep the pot a bit smaller in case you miss the flop and want to c-bet

    16. KTo - I just shove this one preflop

    17. 99 - just shove it preflop, as played this needs some ICM analysis but as played I am pretty sure you have to fold to the shove over with 11x BB behind and only getting 1.3 to 1 on the call

    18. AKs - just shove over preflop, the last thing you want is for ryusan to shove over or flat call and you not know what to do either preflop or on the flop

    19. 44 - don't like this shove against the second stack, you often don't have a lot of fold equity here and if you're called you're almost always flipping or dominated

    Q A BU (M = 7.93; r+F) (between 19 and 20) - I'd need to see the exact hand but this seems like a shove over to me

    21. 86o - nice play, it's even better if you have a read that opp donkminbets the flop every time first in

    22. J9s - raise preflop, 500 is good. As played, I like the check-raise with your pair and FD but just C-R AI the first time around.

    25. A7o - c-bet the flop

    27. K7o - no need to raise so much, 600 is plenty.

    I'll look at the rest later

    28. A2o - raise a bit more, make it 600. Your raise is only slightly more than min.

    7 8 SB (M = 5.67; F) (between 32 and 33) - I shove this

    35. J8s - bet flop because you raised preflop

    36. K6o - consider check-raising if opp bets the flop every time you check

    3 K SB (M = 12.39; F) (between 36 and 37) - definitely raise this
