Yes, pretty terrible!

 

You should be opening any suited A there. Plus, depending on your playing style, a whole bunch of other hands.

 

Try to stop Knitting jumpers that late in the tourny. Then's the time to really start opening it up.

ya i think i folded bcas i wanted to stay around the 20bb mark and have a 3bet shove stack instead of opening and getting called and c bet then i cant 3 bet shove anymore. Maybe a missed opertunity?

Why do you have to c bet if you miss the flop hard?

 

IMO even if u do c bet and get called and u want to shut it down u still have a decent re-shove stack. Or two barrel in position, fold and leave yourself with a shove stack or get up to 30bb where u can start to open up again?

 

I'm pretty aggro tho. So I'll leave it to others to discuss for you. That's my input for what it's worth 🙂

 

GL!

With your stack, if you are not comfortable to open to induce, I open shove, pick up the blinds and antes and move to the next hand. If open min and flatted pre, depending on flop, a smallish c bet of 30-40% pot will give you all the information you need. In most cases you will take the pot right there.

A great series to watch if you haven’t done so already that covers 15-25bb stacks, is KB’s original “Sticking it to the Man” with Bigdog narrating. It is fantastic, and it really opened up my eyes that helped my game!

Agree with others……..  You need to open up and “GIVE THEM THE PILE” or “STUFFY-BAKER” it right in there.
