Default Tourney #1

Here are my notes - they are rough, i am just cutting and pasting them in without editing. It was interesting. I was surprised no one yelled at me - i will post all that too. (btw - i will do zero table chat while playing this method).

First $10 1 table SnG:
no hands played the first level (although) should
be noted that on very first hand JJ went all-in
vs AK.

Didnt play a hand the second level either.

Midway thru 3 level - 4 are out. I am 5th out of
remaining six.

Switched to 4-6 strategy (which is more aggressive).

no hands thru level 4.

Level 5 - with a raise and call - i push on SB
with 7s, they fold.

Raise and i push with Qs and he folds. There is
appx a 3 way tie for 4-6 in chips at this point.

Called a limp with J10s per the rules, flopped top
pair and got bet into hard. Folded. I would have
thrown out a token bet if checked to me.

Next level - 50/100 - still 6, i am at 1465 and 5th

I push with JJ and BB shows me A5 and folds.

Barely 'big' stack at this point. Blinds make me
go to 'medium status'.

I push at cutoff with 910s and all fold. Next
hand i push with KJoff and they fold. I get 44
the very next hand UTG and i fold it. I am back
to 'big' status at this point so that is correct.

The KJ was borderline big/medium status.

I am 4th out of 6 right now. About to go back to
medium when blinds come around. I have to fold
AJo on BB to a raise. I am now 'medium'. Still
4th out of 6.

I fold K10off to a raise and call. I am now 5th
out of 6. BB makes me 6 of 6. Two limpers and i
have A8 on SB - this is 'unclear' per the rule- i fold it.

I push on CO with A9off - all fold.

Blinds up again - i am 'medium'.

I re-raise with AQs on BB...tanks and folds.
I push on SB with A8s after all fold and BB folds

Q2off. I am alost 'big' at this point. I am 3rd
of 6 in chips.

I push in mid with QJs and all fold. I am
borderline big/medium. I balance that decision
based on position. Blinds put me back to medium.

I get A9 on button with a limper. I dump it -
borderline. I would have run into AK. Short is
gone - down to 5. I am 3rd.

I push on SB with A10off...run into AQ.... and i
am out. He tanked - he ALMOST folded it. And i

almost rivered a flush. Out 5th.

Conclusion after first attempt. The push definitely has some power to it. The guy almost dumped AQ after watching me play push or fold. Let see what happens with my second attempt....
