Re:Step 6 PCA bubble hand Result was I folded, got it in against the same guy blind on blind with AQ v (you guessed it) 66, lost flip and bubbled when AJcc couldnt hold against J2 to get back to 10K Sucks cause I sattied into the PCA on my first shot last year (33 super turbo rebuy), and took 13th for 105K.

Step 6 PCA bubble hand 4 handed, 2nd and 3rd pay 1435, 1st ships the seat. I was very tight early but had won the previous four pots and had taken the chiplead. I started on Step 3, and had made it to Step without a loss, my Sharkscope stats are good but much lower stakes, in case he takes that into account. okerStars Game #35195111148: Tournament #211418303, $2000+$100 USD Hold'em No Limit - Level VII (150/300) - 2009/11/10 22:24:27 ET Table '211418303 1' 9-max Seat #8 is the button Seat 1: insomnia80 (5640 in chips) Seat 5: nateypgate (9580 in chips) Seat 8: blanconegro (4575 in chips) Seat 9: ...

Re:First live tournament... advice? From mig's well Re:The Well: In reply to By on 12-23-2008 4:11 PM Get warmed up playing some cash games online. Live tournament are really very similar to online, tells are generally pretty overrated. So just make sure you work on your deepstack play since you will be deeper at pca than you will in most online tourneys. And just stay relaxed and have a good time, you will play better. My own advice (combined with mig's landed me 13th in the pca main event (brag!)): -try to relate the level you are at with the corresponding stage of an online tourney--6 hours in you'll feel ...

Stars connectivity problem wins me a PCA seat Even though I've had some mild tournament success as of late (given my small volume), I couldn't get over the hump--either getting sucked out on or losing a race late in the tourney to keep me out of the big big money. I wondered a lot what it would take for me to finally get over the hump. Last Tuesday I decided to enter a 33r PCA super turbo sat. I built a decent stack by the end of the rebuy hour, and had about 180K (only 9bbs but above average at that stage in the tourney). I woke up with 99 in mid position, the easiest shove for anyone who has ever played any of these. ... Posted in: Poker Discussion	nateypgate Dec 16th, 2008
Re:Took a shot...final tabled the Super Tuesday on my first try That was dirty, but it was button on blind and I still had decent chips if i lost. Think I probably should have flatted your reraise preflop and gone with the flop. Unlucky for you for sure, but isnt stars supposed to let the rookie suck out so I think I could think I could really compete' Posted in: Poker Discussion	nateypgate Nov 18th, 2008
Re:Took a shot...final tabled the Super Tuesday on my first try .....who has been posting on this name on p5s for 2 years...... any real comments' Posted in: Poker Discussion	nateypgate Nov 18th, 2008
Took a shot...final tabled the Super Tuesday on my first try I've been running pretty hot recently in my regular limit games (+20K this month) and the million (3 cashes in the past 4), so I stupidly decided to take a shot and bought in direct into the Super Tuesday. Ran hot early, with one big ak v kk suckout, and had the chiplead when we went into the money. Lost a couple races, got pretty card dead, and was one of the shorter stacks when I busted eighth. Tried to steal, both of us flopped huge, and lost. The 10K is a huge boost to my bankroll though and also a huge boost to my confidence. Definitely not playing this thing without satting in any ...

Re(1): Annette Bustout hand Here's my question with your reasoning Annette. He calls the first and second barrels with AJ on an A K X X board. Are you saying that he folds the river to any non-jack (maybe he calls if an ace rivers as well), when you shove' The only thing I don't understand about this reasoning is that the only hand where he would have "rivered" you is AQ. He's still behind AA, AK, KK, or any other set even when he rivers his 2 pair. The only hand he moves ahead of you with from the turn to the river is if you have AQ. Doesn't he have to put you on exactly AQ if the river card changed his mind about ... Posted in: Poker Discussion	nateypgate Feb 11th, 2008
Re(1): Live Limit Holdem Just got back. Dumped some cash trying to qualify for the Main, but won 1300 at 10-20. Developed the perfect image and then VALUE VALUE VALUE. It's unbelievable how soft these games are. One guy checked called the turn and river with a set of 4s on a rainbow A J 4 5 9 board. "I was worried about the straight." Awesome.....

Re(1): Live Limit Holdem I definitely need to make some adjustments because I normally play a very loose aggressive 6-max online game. Probably going to be much slower, and not as fun not being able to snap off bluffs with ace high....I assume bottom pair is the nuts to some of these guys, as is pocket 4s with 5 overs....I think I'll see what the action is like at 10-20 and move up when I'm feeling comfortable. I've got a lot of live experience but basically 0 limit, but I've been doing pretty well on the mid-limits on Stars and I figure with the WPT going on the 2-5 NL game will probably play a little tougher than ...

Live Limit Holdem Anyone who plays limit live have any thoughts on what limits a 5-10 to 15-30 limit player should play at a casino. I'd assume the casino play is much worse than online. Is 10-20 live the equivalent to 5-10 online or is it even worse than that' I'm headed to the Borgata tomorrow and could use some advice. Or hopefully I'll sat in the Main Event and not have to play any limit at all..... Posted in: Poker Discussion	nateypgate Jan 25th, 2008
Two JJ hands (Million and 100K) Here are my bustout hands from the million and the 100K yesterday, both with pocket jacks. On the million hand, should I be dumping them preflop or is this a good place to chip up' From the 100K, although the result wouldnt be much different, should I be shoving preflop instead of a 3x raise' Or should I fold when getting reraised so small from the small blind who obviously wants action' PokerStars Game #14703310251: Tournament #73430347, $200+$15 Hold'em No Limit - Level VII (400/800) - 2008/01/20 - 18:23:39 (ET) Table '73430347 701' 9-max Seat #7 is the button Seat 1: ilushkin (15950 in ...

Re(2): ITM in the million Hey man. I guess it was a bad call on my part, even though I did get it in ahead. I had about 70-80K at the time, raised to 6500, you pushed for 16K more, psycho guy from the BB calls for 4K. So I'm getting a decent price and felt like gambling. And I was ahead. May not be a great long term play I guess given your range, but I felt like you were an aggressive player who was looking to take advantage of the bubble, and I had the chips to make a -EV call. I think it was the only time at the table with you I got out of line, I was playing about 15% of my hands and had only shown down premium ... Posted in: Poker Discussion	nateypgate Jan 6th, 2008
Re(2): ITM in the million Agreed that the preflop call is brutal. On the flop I have 6 outs to the nuts and 2 which im pretty sure are the nuts (doubtful he is on the flush draw). On the turn I pick up the diamond draw to go with the open ender, giving me 16 outs to what I'm pretty sure is a lock hand. Should I really fold at this point. I think the best option given how bad I played the hand to this point is to call the turn, knowing he is calling any shove if I get there on the river. Again, I know I should have mucked pre, but as played, what is best option on the flop/turn Posted in: Poker Discussion	nateypgate Jan 6th, 2008

Max rake to be a decent winner at sit and go I was just at foxwoods this past weekend and, instead of playing cash, decided to play in their 100+20 sit and goes. These games play worse than any 10+1 online sit and go. At pretty much every table, 3 people have no clue how to play poker, 4-5 would be losing players online, and 2-3 would be break even or better. The problem is that the rake is over twice the online rake. Is it possible to play these games profitably over the long term, or is the rake to big to overcome' Anyone out there play these games professionally or semi professionally' Posted in: Poker Discussion	nateypgate Sep 30th, 2007
Re(2): When to open shove..... Thanks for the response. I wasnt shoving any flop, but with that flop I wanted to take down the pot or put 88-JJ to a pretty tough decision. If I bet 3.5K, I've only got 4K behind (5BBs) and since I was in early position, I had the blinds coming up. I guess I could have checked behind the flop, but an ace came on the turn and then I could get moved off the hand by anything. Posted in: Poker Discussion	nateypgate Jul 5th, 2007
