Something a little different.
If we are sure they are jamming can we not limp? ^ Worked wonders in similar scenarios with players on 8bb and the BB ends up getting potstuck <3

nearing the bubble
Hello, i keep reaching before the bubble on a tournament and seem to always get pushed out it seems i always get blinded out before hand and have a lower stack than most and feel i have to push all in, do i just need to be more aggressive and push my way through to reach the money?

£5 BH oddity
Possibly a bit early position to be raising KJo but meh. The guy in the BB insta-shoved the flop, which gave me the impression that he had decided on his move before the cards were dealt in some bizarre stop-and-go sort of play. He had taken one bounty so his head was worth £3.12(?) The guy to act behind me had been…

when should i start punishing limpers?
I had just moved tables and after about 7 hands, it was clear my table was packed with limpers. my chip stack at the time was 5000, the blinds were 40/80, I was attempting to build my stack and instead it was draining, had these limpers had 0-1K then i could have been better but they didn't. things like super rollers and…

Really any point?
Not especially a bad beat post, or a rigged post, but going round in circles with poker makes me always question the point. You play great get a little ahead, few bad beats back to even. Rinse and repeat over 100 games. Do it all again next 100 games - time is precious. Is Poker as precious? Really fecked off with…

Call or Fold?
From the mini Roller last night. Both players had been very active. X was opening a lot of hands. Y was 3-betting every time they had the button, mostly with garbage from what i saw.

Improve on the turn but then face a big donk bet... what next?
Playing one of the deepstacks last night, this must have been 4/5 before the bubble with the final 3 tables. Not entirely sure it's a definite C-bet here, but after that point, what should my play be on the turn and why? Can't quite work out what oppo would have... certainly can't think of anything I'd be donking 3/4 pot…

Players thoughts on MTT 2K starting stacks??
Hi everyone, This is my first discussion starter on Sky poker, (so excuse if this has been spoken about before). My question is what are players views on 2k starting stacks in the MTTS? I thoroughly enjoy playing tournies on sky for many reasons, but one thing I don't quite get is the reason the starting stacks are 2k…

General MTT Question
When is the best time to C-bet or just check E.G. Early on you have AK and raise and totally miss the flop say 962 flops What do you do. For me it usually depends on the opponent and notes like if they are weak or not, and how many are in the pot. Like if everyone calls it would be harder to get the C-bet through. Am i…

Is my play here going to be profitable in the long run??
It is worth noting that the bb is away which could be a factor in villains raise. Villain is a winning mtt reg, fairly wide opening range. This is tonights main BH.....my thinking was he could be at it with junk or it's more than likely a race and I could even be a mile ahead so I shoved. I appreciate it's a high variance…

Small pocket pairs mid/late stages 15-25 bbs??
As always with these types of questions: it depends! Not just on your chip stack but others at the table. Generally though I won't open HJ or UTG with small pairs. But if the table is playing really tight then I'll be opening HJ and UTG much more often with them.

Re-buy strategy?
Hi Don't normally play re-buys, but played in a couple of the £2 UKOPS ones. In one i had a well known reg sat to my left (he late-regged in not long before the rebuys stopped).

K9 mid-late tourney
Sorry I can't find the hand history. This was from a couple nights ago in the £50BH. I had about 31k with blinds at 500/1k and pick up K9o in the CO. Min-r to 2k and then the BTN 3-bets to 4.2k.

Played a £25 speed tourney in the early hours and had a player whose pre flop action from the opening hand was push or fold and they played a lot of hands.
