Late stage hands

edited March 2014 in Tournament Strategy
Hey all. Had a deep run in the mini tonight before busting just shy of the decent money in 11th. I just wanted some opinion on a few hands.

Check/call one street? Cbet? I dont mind winning the pot here and now but never getting called by a worse hand. Villain loose passive pre.

Looking back I think this hand was too weak to steal with, even against tight blinds. Having said that, should I go with the hand now? Player was tight and possibly flats medium pairs pre, dont expect to see a fd much.

    Hand one....Cbet but quite small, 12k ish will get the job done. Not putting another chip in the pot if called on this flop!

    Probably raising more pre. Gonna be awkward to play this OOP down the streets. Even though we hate this flop, I think we can win the hand more often than not with a cbet.

    Hand 2....marginal. I might pass pre, soley based on the stack sizes in the blinds...12 and 24bb. We are gonna get jammed on quite often. Obvs this is all in a vacuum with no table dynamic. If we have a tight image, our steals should get more credit. 

    Tough one on the flop. I think we can pass. Might even check back this flop; under reps our hand and keeps the pot managable. We are never gonna get 3 streets of value with this hand.
