At that point its just a simple SNG. That's oversimplifying it but it is. I can't tell what place you came in but for the vast majority of folks that are irritated at their final table results its usually because of not prepping for the table.

I'm mean, were you watching the other table to see how other folks play? What was your strategy going into the table? Were you going to be aggressive donk and steal or were you going to play tight and laid back to see if folks would eliminate themselves?

You need a gameplan.

in a big 11 tournament I expected to have won the tournament more falls. 4 and I saw that those who were at the final table were much better players than me and that they were already used to reaching final tables in these tournament styles, so I resigned!

You don't fold often enough brother. Today I folded AA at a final table and got the ticket.

Leave your ego, even common sense behind and fold.

Once I get to the final table I increase pressure on everyone. They play way too passive wanting first place so I take advantage. Sometimes they gang up on me though when they figure what I'm doing lol.

Hold em , fold em,

I've implied both strategies . Idk when I get there I loose it. Heads up not my best game. I know I need to do it more and practice. Maybe even read some strategy books. Really have problems ranging my opponents heads up.. idk... im working on it.


Got 7th yesterday in another $50 free at ACR.


Got 2nd in cc100 free also last night at ACR.
Pulled in $15.50. Thanks Cards Chat!! See if I can't triple it up by Wednesday.. Love free money.

But where are you first? I'm gonna find you, and when I do. I'm gonna keep ya.

LOL,, LOVE THIS GAME

Hey - I was radiatordonk yesterdy on the ACR final table

I would guess that calling A high gutter balls for over 50% of your stack might be a leak ;)

Good luck today! look forward to battling with you again
