play $3 or $5 sngs, 9 man up to 45 man NON turbo. Even at $5, you will have 200 buy ins. If you stick to this level strictly and find yourself down more than $250 (50 buy in downswing), you have to read more, or learn more. Play abc poker in these and you should gain experience and do fine.

so he has either AJ spades or JT spades? not sure he would bet his flush on flop when checked to by the original raiser.

QQ and AK are clear folds here. Also, do not ever call A6 to raise and reraise, do not ever call A6 to a raise, do not limp or call a limp with A6. The likelihood you ever hit a flush and get paid off without risking between 1/3 to all of your stack on the flop in these wild turbos is tiny, so just say NO to A6. The most likely result is you donk off too many chips when an ace flops and you are crushed.

I dont use that one, but try the Renaissance Purple theme ONLY when the blinds you get to are 1k/2k since the gold chips look great on the purple background, and it gives you amazing luck.

If you get AA on the first hand, and your opponent flops a set, you could be out in 2 minutes.

I would normally be somewhat tempted to call here IN position, but the two players in the pot have stacks that are so much smaller than yours that the true value of AJ suited lies in the ability to make str8s and flushes, not to hit a dry ace or jack on the flop where you don't know if your hand is good. So, I guess in this case I would quickly fold since your implied odds are not so good, and you are not likely to get to the turn or river without committing a large amount on a draw.

anyone having trouble logging in to Poker Stars, or is it just me?

You will quickly find out that A6 offsuit and 33 are both the stone cold nuts in the sunday million, dont be afraid to shove these hands or call multiple preflop reraises with them as you are certain to suck out and beat AA or KK every time. GL, I have no doubt that you or someone just like you will win it for sure.

please sign up, let's get some momentum, then this cool tourney will go off tonight. Just a very cool structure, check it out if you haven't seen it.

Even if you perceive the villain as tight, ask yourself why he is raising 4xbb utg when the blinds are so high? Are players getting their raises flat called a lot in this tourney? Does this raise size seem out of line with this player or the regular raise size in the last 20 minutes? Do you honestly think that raise represents JJ to AA only? I personally would guess AK is possible, JJ also, unlikely QQ to AA, very possible 55-99 or AQ/AJ. you can shove all in, or even flat call and see what he does
