Re(1): smooth call or all in
I would bet an amount that would thin the field, but price in the raiser. If you raise to 600 total you can get one player out, and give the villan decent pot odds to draw pretty thin. Even if you raise to 600 total, both players call, and 4 of clubs rolls, you now even if someone hit the flush you have the odds to try and fill up on the river. But i can see the reason you pushed all in, and it isn't bad. I take more risk in hands like this by trying to extract lots of value, but some people want to push and win the already big pot right there. both the all in, and the re raise seem good, ...

Re(3): Is this shove a leak in my mtt game or a standard play?
If you are going to shove, it should be a pretty wide range. You are not going to get called very much, and when you do your villan will have a hand that is good. So even if you do push 55+ K-10s+ KJ+ you are going to be behind when you get called a lot of the time. Sooo you might as well open it up if you are going to be behind anyways. I wouldn't shove tho, but thats me. I would just raise 2.5 the bb (i <3 2.5bb raises) and give my self some room to fold if someone re raises.

Re(2): Mentor rates (INFO NEEDED)
I have gone the training site way before, and they have helped my game. The fall back is that it is hard for me to watch a long video and pay attention. I never did well in school because that sort of teaching doesn't work well for me. On the other hand i learn faster and better from one on one instruction. Show me the instructions of how to put together a lawn mower and i can put it together once, but show me how to put it together your self, and i will remember the process long term. Also many people that mentor in all sorts of fields state that they learn a lot form the student/teaching ...

Mentor rates (INFO NEEDED)
I am not wanting a mentor right now, but i plan on trying to find some help in a few months. I am going to be looking for MTT help. I will be playing the nightly 10+1 to 24+2 mtts on full tilt as my main MTTs. What i am wondering is what would be a good % of my winnings to offer a prospective mentor' I want to be some what generous with my offer that way i will attract more possible mentors, but at the same time offering 25% more than i should of would be bad for me. I have no idea what would be right, and i need help. Having the right % will help find a mentor, then make money for me and ...

Re(1): does winning make u want to play more or stop?
i get lazy. if i run a set of sngs and wreck, then odds are thats it for me. Good way to combat this is to focus on something else other than the $. Set some goals that are not related to money, but will make you money. X amount of hands, sngs, or mtts with a roi or bbx100 type stuff. Or try to win some of the leaderboards

Re(2): 4.40 tough board for a set
in responce to fink and the idea of just betting out, i disagree with going balls to the walls 100% of the time when you hit a good hand. This idea is valid yes, but you are missing tons of money in the long run. If you always bet your good hands, you will get lots of pots taken away from you when you check, because they know if you hit, you would of bet. You can't be a robot with the betting strong hands, sometimes you have to mix it up. PLUS any person knows that a vast majorty of the time two random cards miss the flop. If you put in lots of time in the heads up sngs, or cash games, you ...

Re(2): The best form of poker for BR building is.....WARNING LONG
any form of poker can work to build up a bankroll, so just do what you are most comfortable, and stick to it. Do not grind up a decent amount and decide you want to jump in a mtt because you are buying in with your profits. Just stay with it. If you want mtts then hit the 180 mans on stars, or the 90 man on ftp. Cash games, just hit you favorite sites micro nl games. If variance is an issue, play full ring, and maybe buy in a tad short. like with 50-80% of the max buy in untill you grind up some cash, then buy in for the max. SNGs the 3.40/6.50 turbos on stars should be renamed free money. ...

You are not going to be getting a second car from the profits, but you will be able to build up a bankroll. After you buy yourself something nice with the profits from playing all of your 4.40s, you can make the make the decision to build up a roll, and move up limits.
