Big 1,10$

With blocking 2 sets it's really hard to not get broke with 2 pair. I wouldn't be surprise villain could stack of with a random ace on a micro tournament like this.

Cheers,

easy broke! I like that u donked the Flop. Sizing is kinda big thou. It looks to strong, since u would like to have villian call once with 8x, too.

everything else wp! :-)

keep grindin man, u are on the right track!

Hmm not wp but waiter again win:

wp! with the CO's wide range realizing ur equity by 3bet shoving with 20bb is all u can do.

Keep in mind, that we love those calls ... just the outcome

And on another waiter cold call on button my open raise 2.5x when I have AA with K4s and catch two pairs on flop...

Zero value, zero good game and results on tournaments

wp. AKs is an insta call here.
Keep grinding aleasy! It's all good, happens to all of us!

If u have alot of tables open, at the same time; it would be benefical for u, that u don't watch the runout of the cartds. Just fokus on ur other tables. This help me alot in the early days.

Merry Xmas!

Thanks and merry Christmas for You and everybody. Nothing helps me when runnout sucks and on tournaments a lot of recreation players win big pots and I go out very often.

Again 2 unlucky hands. Nothing you can do about it.
Both KT calls are optimistic I think.

How many unlucky hands I put here? Today I lose all in preflop with AK for 15bb vs TT. What I write no one time, ZERO VALUE IN MICRO TOURNAMENTS!

The best way is fold every tournaments, no play this bull***** unfair games.

Again vs maniac which push weak A8s and must win

Bad beats will happen at every limit. I expect it's enough value in micro games. Only the variance is a lot higher in those mega MTT fields.

In micro cash games yes, on micro tournaments no.

The variance at micro cash games is a lot lower than in MTT's. Than it looks like there is more value in cash games than in MTT's I think.

I would not recommend playing long blind structures in Micro MTTs, since it is very frustrating playing 4h and then loosing to those aleasy's hands ...
Variance is huge in the big fields.

For me its only hypers and turbos until my Bankroll is $2k. The "time lose" when villians hit there 3 outers are not that big. And if u win once in the early stage of an hyper, u can almost fold ur way to the money.

Folding in to the money is most of the time a satellite approach I think.
Off course the variance in hypers and turbo's is higher than in a normal blind structure.
Not sure aleasy77 can handle that.

No I can't handle it, tournaments are too unfair for Play, I Play too turbo tournaments and not better, lose coin flips preflop, lose when I am favorite, go vs monster hand preflop, postflop very seldom connected with board.
For what I should Play this when I lose every pots, set I get one of hundred times when I have pocket, very often strong draws were busted and more unlucky and frustrated hands.
Too hard for poker room gives one good run on tournament and go to final table for example. With my unlucky I can't win something good on tournaments (remember too on ggp I lose 28 times in row with nothing on ggcare).

Than it's most likely better to concentrate on the ring games more than in tournaments.
