So I've been playing these 45 man $1 SNGs on PokerStars.. and after realising that most of the players aren't even looking at the screen when they're pressing the "call" button, I've tightened up and had some decent success. By avoiding big all ins in the early levels, I can normally final table and cash. Anyway.. here's a hand played very early on that I did end up all in. Did I play it ok? PokerStars Game #5439764319: Tournament #27467588, $1.00+$0.20 Hold'em No Limit - Level II (15/30) - 2006/07/03 - 08:28:54 (ET) Table '27467588 2' 9-max Seat #4 is the button Seat 1: PokerBarney2 (1470 in chips) Seat 4: bardamu99 (1120 in chips) Seat 5: SGTStryker (1360 in chips) Seat 6: yuruana (2410 in chips) Seat 7: WannaBePro23 (530 in chips) Seat 8: mumrah55 (1020 in chips) Seat 9: Stoneydrums (3940 in chips) SGTStryker: posts small blind 15 yuruana: posts big blind 30 *** HOLE CARDS *** Dealt to PokerBarney2 [Jc Js] WannaBePro23: calls 30 mumrah55: folds Stoneydrums: calls 30 PokerBarney2: raises 90 to 120 bardamu99: folds SGTStryker: folds yuruana: folds WannaBePro23: calls 90 Stoneydrums: calls 90 *** FLOP *** [6c 6h 5c] WannaBePro23: checks Stoneydrums: bets 30 PokerBarney2: raises 150 to 180 WannaBePro23: folds Stoneydrums: calls 150 *** TURN *** [6c 6h 5c] [Qs] Stoneydrums: checks PokerBarney2: bets 180 Stoneydrums: calls 180 *** RIVER *** [6c 6h 5c Qs] [3s] Stoneydrums: bets 990 PokerBarney2: calls 990 and is all-in Thanks.

Re: JJ.. how did I do? Don't think I would have played it that differently PB. Only thing I may have done was on the turn, where I think rather than trying to induce a check raise, he was hoping for a free card, as after the flop I put him on a draw, must likely a flush draw. I think he would have bet with any sort of up and down straight draw. I would have raised probably twice or 2 1/2 times what you did there. I would have seen his all in on the river as a ploy to try to steal the pot, either having missed his flush draw or having only X 5 in his hand, so would have called to. Now you are going to tell us he was a calling station and held 2 4 off or 4 7 off, or maybe a pair of 6s.:eek
