Tricky spot with QQ
We`re about 8 hands into a deepstack,Nobody has been going mad, when oppo raises the flop, I don't think I can flat ( or is that ever an option? ) Is this a shove or fold?

Is it ever right to go all-in without pot odds?
Is it ever right to go all-in without pot odds? For example, is playing like a donkey ever a good move to make people avoid you? Here is an example from the £4K B/H Direct satellite. We were on the final table with 6 people and the average stack was around 5333 chips with 150/300 blinds. Only 3 places win a £55 seat, 4th…

How to measure your stack throughout a MTT
HI Not sure if I will be able to explain this right but will give it a go! I have been studying my game and have noticed that I manage to build up a healthy stack fairly early on playing mainly ABC poker with the odd move etc. I never go mental - no one ever wins a MTT in level 1 but you sure can loose it So here is my…

did i play this right or do i keep my losses to a min?

Bet sizing - 3 and 4 betting
How big/small should you make your 3bets and 4 bets? I realise various situations will call for different sizing but just in general. To make it easier assume all villains equally stacked +50bb's, facing a normal sized open and you are readless.

Silly or was it correct play Mini BH
Bit of background, got a great start last night got up to around 25-30k in chips and was chip leader for a while with around 150 left or so. Blinds start to get very high and I was card dead for like 20mins to half an hour. Guys at my table were good players and kept raising so I decided to make a stand and call a raise.…

My image shouldn't be too out of line either. I cant quite remember but…

Hand from roller. Should i fold? If so on which street?
Had not been on the table long. Only notes I have on oppo is that he has raised from utg with T6o in a previous game, although he hasn't been too active in the 10-15mins I have been on his table in this game. His 3bet doesn't necessarily mean he is that strong given the fact my raise is from the button........was really…

Satelite Strategy
Thoughts as in - should you have shoved there? Yes, your fold equity decreases greatly in the next hand with you losing another 1,000 chips in the big blind, and K8 - while not the greatest hand to go with - is slightly above average. You just have to take your lumps on this one I'm afraid.
