I didn't like the 5-5 or K-10, and watched them live.

5-5 open fine but didn't like the call of the shove.

K-10 didn't like the open or the call of the shove, particularly versus that player. Think you had just moved to the table though. You probably just missed celtic's comment during a hand "that's the only hand you have played for four hours" when the guy shoved on celtic's bb just previous

Perhaps unfashionably (and I am not a player of your chip getting talents, of course) I think you can move down the gears a bit when you have 1.5m of 13m in play with 30 left and don't need to open so light/put yourself in these spots when a lot of the other stacks are shallow and 3-bet shoving so much.

Instead play the opposite of your image for a level and catch them when they shove, where you will instead show up with the goods much more often than they expect

Unlucky though, I was hoping you'd crush it.
You are gonna do well in your monte Carlo event tighty. So looking forward to you n George heads up

Not opening 55 to fold when it's 250 to call to win 400k.

Fold the KT as said but if I made the same mistake of opening I'd sigh call it off when it's 270k to call to win 518k if my maths is correct.

I'm happy with the Q10dd hand. Would rather fold than raise/fold but overall think shoving is best.

Agree the K10 hand is just shit.

the 55/A7 hand I'm kinda on the fence with. I spose looking back at them it's easy to say fold cos stacks were getting shallow and I should have adjusted. Guess I was living on the confidence from the last table where I could do no wrong

Why does the Q-10 become a raise/fold on the dolly if sb finds a shove for 350k? We just raise/called 300k from ep with 5-5 and raise/called 350k from ep with K-10.

bb's very small stack in this hand makes me think sb seldom shoves light and why I think normal raise is less exploitable than at other times. If Bedi button raises and sb jams the bb can value fist pump a wide range with his bowl.

I think your shove with the QTs is perfect, and i'd played with both guys a fair bit at the time.

Posted this from my dads account accidentally, I'm the AQo guy, grey hoodie etc from sunday, brutal run of cards, didn't fancy you moving to my table chipped up, especially two to my left. Big scores are always round the corner for a player of your ability

I think it's perfect in isolation. But this is in the context of a live tournament in the middle of a cluster of gambles. I think at this stage a LAG player should change down gears and build a more solid image to win a higher % of uncontested pots. But we are getting unwanted action from various live bods with our shit hands. We attract this action from average table of live players because we massive shove the button and dish out free spin-ups with a wide range. People who need to gamble like to 3bet jam us because we are seen as loose or a bully. So it's not perfect for building our new TAG image to avoid gambles and blow-ups just short of final tables imo.
