Nice tournament. Were Dimeback and Imogene as tight players as they appear from the hands you provided? I like the way you were able to chip away at their stacks by stealing the pot after a low flop. Did you have an early read on those players, or is that pretty common in these low $ NL tourneys?

[DblDownTrent]

hand #134.

nice laydown. wtf?

[KnightsPG]

Nice win. A couple thoughts as I was reading hh.

Hand #128 - I would have slow played a bit more and called the flop, then either bet small amount on turn or check raised turn.

I'm surprised that Dimeback didn't play his bigger stack and position against you more. Especially after you said you were scared of being eliminated on bubble with AA vs QQ.

What's with the recent trend of bumping REALLY old threads?

FWIW, I don't think Sponge is too concerned with analysis of his play anymore.

Yeah, the stakes are higher now for him.

He's running a big semibluff with John 3:16 offsuit.
