2006 U.S.PC Devon Miller?
saw this too, and was wondering the exact same things. Was poker paging lots of players in that broadcast and was wondering what happened to a bunch of them, but Devin Miller def stood out. Made such a quick splash at a young age, and then seemed to vanish....

Is shipping here the right move?
I could probably fold this vs most opponents, but with those stats of villains I am shoving. I would much rather have a bigger stack with more fold equity, but I think this should just be a value based shove based on there stats and the likely dead money in the pot from the blinds and antis and one of them folding. Def player dependent and with these players looks like a ship to me

How would you play this hand???
This....and I would much rather check call. I think he is going to just fold if you bet or raise you you depending if he has the Q or not. Therefore you are not getting any value by betting. If you check he is going to bet with Q or as a bluff so I would check to induce the bluff. I think you really want to try to get to showdown at this point with this size pot, and check calling is the best way to ensure that.

Awkward stack against station oop with AKo
I thought of calling as an option but thought it was just too weak at the time. Good to hear a super solid winning player like yourself support that as an option. I agree that polarizing here is not too bad either since it is a much better option than getting in the spot that I got in. As for the spot that I did get in and will try to avoid in the future, my stack was so strange that I couldn't decide against a bet/fold and a bet/call. I knew I pretty much had to c bet so that these were my only options. You say I have to bet/fold, but after I c bet I am getting about 3-1 on his shove ...

Awkward stack against station oop with AKo
That def polarizes me to AK then don't you think' I think so but I think it still puts me in a better spot than I was in. As played, what is my line on the flop' *Doesn't 5xing to set up a go and go pretty much polarize you to AK, maybe AQ'

23-way chop?
Nikkid, I was one of the players in this chop as well. I sat to the left of you at the end of day one and for the beginning of day 2. I had the Top Chef hat on. I had fun playing with you and you played very well. She sums up a lot of this in this quote. I am a live rookie and I could not believe how poorly this tournament was run. The staff literally stood there as players yelled at each other and over everyone taking the reins. It was very unprofessional. I had 900k at the time and the average was 850k. Blinds were 25k/50k with a 5k anti I believe. Some guy came up with a deal and as I was ...

Analyzing my own MTT stats for better game selection....what tracking site is best?
If the poker db is the best tool to self analyze my MTT game I will gladly pay the $12 for the month for this access. If anyone has any better ideas please let me know and if not I will sign up for the pokerdb. Side note; Does anyone subscribe to the pokerdb continuously' If so what kind of advantages would you say it gives you over the free version of official poker rankings'

Analyzing my own MTT stats for better game selection....what tracking site is best?
I actually don't use PT3, HEM or a hud. I had them for a while but I felt it actually made me lazy and decreased my observational skills. I only 5 table so I can see how these tools would be beneficial for mass tabling, but for a hand full of tables playing MTT's I am not sure they actually help. Maybe I should get one up and running again just for self evaluation purposes. Also if I did get PT3 or HEM would it only work for tournaments going forward or could I import all of my hh and tournament stats into it from the past''' I just tried to do an advanced search on sharkscope for one of ...

Analyzing my own MTT stats for better game selection....what tracking site is best?
Does official poker break things down into buy ins levels ect' I saw a screen shot of some pretty nice break downs of a players stats from the poker db but I am pretty sure that you have to pay a membership fee to get that kind of access. Basically I want to know what my ROI's are for different stakes so I can game select better. thoughts''

Analyzing my own MTT stats for better game selection....what tracking site is best?
I basically want to analyze my own play in MTT's so that I can game select better. I want and get a breakdown of things such as; 1)ROI for different buy in levels 2) ROI for different days of the week 3) ROI for tournaments starting at different times 4) ROI for rebuys vs. freezeouts/ deepstacks vs. turbos Are there any sites that really get into the nitty gritty and break all of this down' Are they free, or do I have to pay for them'

Re:SICK SICK SPOT!!! Can I fold this???
That was my feeling...he shoved so fast and it just wreaked of strength. Even running the numbers with the tightest range possible though JJ + and AK it call was slightly plus ev. That being said I am happy with my call but really wouldn't be to happy getting it in with 1010 here.

Re:SICK SICK SPOT!!! Can I fold this???
Think about it though....not as standard as it looks...I ran a poker stove on the shipping villain for having JJ + and AK and my equity came out to 36 percent I really feel that his range is super tight here.

SICK SICK SPOT!!! Can I fold this???
Just moved to table...no reads Can I fold this here''' The under the gun limp...my raise and even more so the smooth call out of the lb show lots of possible strength in this hand and should scream this to the shipper. What is a normal thinking players range for squeezing all in here' When it gets to me I am getting almost exactly 2-1 and even if the lb has a monster up his sleeve and calls (which I do fear because honestly that call either means monster or that or that he is a donk) I am getting 3-1 which is the right price for JJ even against a dominated range. Very bad spot....what ...

WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST Heads up lead ever blown???? 42-1 and lost
Just had a player 42-1 in chips heads up at the end of an MTT and lost. Can anyone top this''' Lost 3 straight all ins....then then he shipped all in on my bb and I had 72...Folded then I called his ship with 7 bb's with K5x and lost 3rd all in to a2o. Then he moved in like 6 straight hands from his lb for like 15-20bb's and I had nothing to call. On my bb at this time I had 93o 72o types and folded. I raised one and he reshipped. After all of this we were even and then I lost a coinflip preflop. I would think that i would be really sick to my stomach right now but suprisingly I am ...

Really Tough Spot with JJ in lb after a raise and reraise late in tourney....
Final Table Bubble... I am obv planning on just moving in on the original raiser but then another player moves in. This player has 15bb's and I think he can be making this play much wider than JJ. I think that I am def ahead of both of there ranges but if I call I think it is likely that the original player will then call almost any holding betting a bit better than 2-1 closing the action. I don't love the fact of being all in three way here with JJ but I figure it is likely the best play. Question 1) What range is it correct to call all in here given my assumptions' Stage ...

Re:Strange Spot....What is the best play here with this stack? Should I call or raise???
1) I am putting this player on; a) Weak top pair b) Flush draw (maybe with a pair or gutter) c) Huge hand (small percentage of the time <10%) ..........really not sure though so any help appreciated 2) My play was to raise and get it all in if shoved -I figured that I had enough fold equity combined with my semibluff strength of the hand (likely about 7 or 8 outs on ave) to make this play profitable I'm not sure if I like this better than calling or not though especially since I am in position. Any help appreciated....will post results later.
