  1. $5.50 MTT on Stars. No real reads at the table. Second level. Doubled through when my K-Q beat a second best K-T.

  2. Beat him into the pot with your call-I wouldn't have any thinking to do. If you lose the hand, you still have 2000 and plenty of time to carry on the fight.
  3. I've got no reads on the guy. Can I honestly assume that most times he shows up with A-K or worse? Or do I just rely on the chips I would have left if I lose?

  6. Insta-call. Who cares if he has AK?? You have queens and you aren't folding for that price.
