Well... did I? I usually prefer a bit of post flop play so nto sure what I was thinking on the first one, but would anyone have done the same in either of these situations?

    Ok on 1, this was against another massive stack, maybe I should have just called tho- why risk tourny life when I could have seen the K come out, test the water and hopefully have made a good fold. Everyone tends to be like 'get it all in' with QQ etc, but surely a slower play would have made sense? The bubble had just burst and was about 5th in chips or something like that with 38 remaining.

    2) It would have been real cheap to call as was the short stack shoving with only 1 person behind, I'd have folded if chewy shoved but if he'd called then I would have got it in on the flop. 

    3) Again, I had a massive draw, but there was such a small chance of hitting it, I must have been well under the odds against the guy with the suited J.

    Then again I'm probably talking a load of rubbish but these were the hands I thought about the most.

    1) If the flop doesnt come down with an A or K arent you missing value? I like the play, would have played the same you dont get QQ+ very often and need to get max value from them

    2) Stop being so results orientated!! If you dont hit the flop massive you wouldnt have posted the hand!

    3) I would have put it all in 1st but doesnt really matter

    You are mate

    Hand 1) we're happy to get it in vs AK as we are still favourates, one of the reasons we do is if an ace or king comes on the flop we can be bluffed of the pot. also to get value from lower pp which may call but they wont if an A or K on the flop

    hand 2) thats got to be a joke surely??? most standard fold ever your jus being results orientated here

    Hand3) yes you was behind but if noone else was on the flush draw and your straight outs aswell it is a monster so it is pretty standard again getting it in

    Ok cool cheers guys. 

    1) This is the hand I'm still mainly unsure off, getting max value or could be bluffed off the pot, hmmm. I dont think he would have shoved with anything lower than AA/KK/AK at this point, no need to, which is where my thoughts come in.

    2) I think folding the 45 suited was fine looking back, but I love them cards lol.

    3) Yes I went for it as I wanted the straight flush lol, feel better about getting it in now and less of a luckbox haha.

    Cheers for the advice.
