Double Your Money 1st hand dilemma
This is a £22 DYM first hand. I like to play a wide range early to see some flops and the following hand arose. I haven't played this hand great - especially the min raise on river. My question is....... Is this an insta call or a fold and give myself time to recover? I'll post my actions later on.KEVO282 Small blind 10.00…

early on in sit and go's with high pockets
Its happened a couple of times now when I've got pocket Q's K's or A's and I raise 3x the big blind and everyone folds. Shall I slow play these hands hoping to hit or keep raising and hope someone calls knowing my hand is best.

PLAYING LIVE, HOW DO YOU CONDUCT YOURSELF
Is it best to go into a live tournament cocky, confident, be the table captain or quiet, say nothing, put on a hood an glasses, give no info or just be normal and nice.

Time to re-think AK in amber zone?

Medium pocket pairs over rated?
I find in tournaments when blinds are high and you get to the stage where you need to shove, if you go all in with an AK for example, you often get called by people with medium pairs. Calling for all your stack with pocket 9s, good move or not? personally i rarely call, as in my opinion the best you can hope for is racing…

AA early in MTT
Been waiting all night for a hand and get AA. Blinds 200 / 400. One caller at 400, I am on BB. All night someone goes all in and gets called. I decide to bet 1k. and everyone, including the chap who bet 400 folds. I was trying to narrow to 121. How would you have played it to get paid?

Table selection strategy for cash games
I know the standard advice, which is very good actually, is to choose tables that have a higher average pot as they are more likely to have loose aggressive fish on them. However, do you think that if you obtain a loose aggressive style, which I do sometimes haha, you are better off choosing a table full of nits with a low…
