Early Stage DYM
How does everyone go about the early stages of Double Your Money's? And is there a correct way to play them? I personally try and get chips early so in the latter stages i can hold back the temptations of calling higher blinds with connectors.

Shortstacked in latter stages of an MTT
I hear time and time again that when you reach the latter stages of an MTT and the blinds are about to eat you up (ie you have 6-12BB's left) you should shove any sort of a decent holding. This is a strategy I firmly embrace but the problem I'm having is doing it UTG. I am becoming inclined to fold 22-55 and QJo,K10,A8 etc…

Thoughts please
Should I have smelled a rat here. In hindsight, I get the feeling that my turn bet was a bit aggro as he was obv calling with something on the flop, which could be A7 I spose. LOL, I couldnt help raising his weak flop lead with overs. I obv couldve got away if he had come back over on the flop. Any thoughts....Pronk Small…

Is Sitting out a strategy
Noticed a player today sitting out in a sit an go, waiting for a raise and diving back in over the top with AA then again AK, winning both pots and then become ultra aggressive. Its never crossed my mind to do this and dont think its right but i guess if you pay your money you can do what you want.

Double Stacked exit - strategy needed for deep in tourney
This was my exit hand from the £33 double stacked mtt last night. I finished in 11th and got just over £100. However, I was going for the win and not the laddering which is why I went with the 9s. It's been bugging me since as I was voluntarily going to put my tourney life on the line with a coin flip as the opponent…

The right time to go all-in?
Hi Guys I was playing in a bounty hounter yesterday, and we were down to the last 10 players (starting from around 200). I had around 18 bb's left and was in the small blind (blind levels were 500 / 1k) with Ace-Nine off-suit and the action had been folded round to me. The big stack was in the bb with around 60 bb's and…

Small blind, aggressive player....
I call. At 12,000 a round we have an M of 2.5. The buttons range, based on your description above, is massive. I would expect him to be shoving pretty much any 2 cards there. If we get called by the BB then that's just hard luck.

Advice for when you have a large chip stack in a MTT
Hi guys, Whenever I have a lot of chips say 2/3x the tourney average I dont seem to be able to bully. I seem to sit tight and let the other players catch me up. So do you have any suggestions? i.e. play position a lot more, rather than your cards. Thanks for your time.Dave

Should you ever think you're behind in this situation?
I've been thinking about this hand for the last couple of days and wondering if the situation was reversed, could I have just flat called the river instead?
