https://www.cardschat.com/hand/What do tou think? Clearly the results were good but do you think i should have played this hand to the end by calling 2 all-in bets. I was pretty sure that my opponents didn't have a flush draw or anything better so i was certain that if i hit one of my outs i will win. When e first villian went all-in i was going to fold, but when the other one called i saw an oportunity.

Please post your comments.

Good call here given the odds.

But shortstacking 10NL on FTP is a bad bad bad idea, imo. Shortstacking is a high variance game and 10NL on FTP is a high rake game. Both don't mix well.

I definitely think this was a great call and definitely worth it here. You got better pot odds on your money and cannot get leveraged out from here. Had you had more money I probably would consider reraising all in to get the big stack out. You generally have outs in any case. Well played and much luck involved there. Congrats.

Can you explain me a little more about your toughts on playing shortstacked at full tilt? I'm doing it because i have a limited bankroll of $50 so i can't plat bigstacked without taking the risk of loosing it all.

What do you sugest? Maybe play sitngos?

Don't play any microstakes at FT since their rake is ridiculous until you get to $5 S&Gs/25NL.

I'd say $2 SNGs is the only thing you are rolled for with $50. Then move to $5 SNGs when you BR reaches $100.

If you prefer to play ring games, PS has much lower microstakes.

i totaly agree with belgo on the $2 and $5 sng. see this is how u preserve ur bankroll and give urself numerous shots to cash instead of losing it all in 1 shot and getting gready
