Matthew Hunt continues his theory series on playing short stacks well. He uses the Holdem Resources Calculator to analyze 25bb and under play. In part 3, he looks at 10-18bb play and concludes that we should be raise deciding instead of shoving more often than not. In part 4, he looks at the same stack sizes but this time, he focuses on exploitive play instead of GTO play.
Arvydas “Merfinis” Merfeldas Big $162 Hand History Review
https://www.tournamentpokeredge.com/arvydas-merfinis-merfeldas-big-162-hand-history-review-part-4/
Merfinis concludes the hand history review of his deep run in the Big 162 on Poker Stars this week. In part 4, we start with about 30bbs with about 18 players left. Merfinis stays active and grinds his stack up without getting into any big flips. He rides that aggression all the way to the final table where he gets very unlucky.
Sunday Big Ticket Hand History Review with Marc Alioto and Guests
Marc Alioto returns with a hand history review of his Merge major win. In part 1, he focuses on finding good light 3-betting spots and taking note of how others are playing. After doubling up with a set of kings, he starts to open up his game to capitalize on the reads he got earlier.

Andrew brings us a Stop & Go hand where he plays 54s from the BB. He faces an open from EP and flops middle pair. He uses an unconventional line to take advantage of a bad turn card for villain’s range.
