yep


but shove any hand that is folded to you

if you go through the blinds again you lose ALL fold equity

YOu cant wait for hands
10x the bb you still have fold equity, you have to shove ANY TIME IT IS FOLDED TO YOU

Ok, i will get my ass movin, its bubble time, less likely to get called

dont call anyone, or shove over a limper/raiser without a big hand

I almost just pushed with A8s but with 2 limps decided not to

out in 49th, thx for the advice

dont be results oriented, gp

The key is to not get into this position in the first place. Sometimes it's unavoidable, like when you have a real stack and get into a losing confrontation with another real stack. But you don't want to bet here via not playing/folding. There comes a time in the tournament (around 20bb) where you need to start taking some more active risks to avoid this situation.

Well, I had a pretty good time playing, and i would really like to be able to play MTTs with success. I feel I am a very good cash game and SnG player, but MTTs were always my downfall. I think I will start playing the 3k guaranteed more frequently.
