Good to hear, Zy. Go deep!

Should hand #1 been played more aggressively on the flop and/or turn, or does that risk not getting sufficient value from TPTK?

[Zybomb]

I could certainly be wrong, but the hand is pretty standard as far as I go.

I figure by checking the flop we ensure a few things:

-We save ourselves $ the times that villain flopped a set of Jacks
-We should get two streets of value from AQ, where as by betting we will probably only get one
-We allow villain to bluff the turn a lot when he wouldn't have called the flop

By making our hand look like QQ/KK (check behind flop call turn bet in position like we would with QQ/KK) I think we'll get bet into the river a lot and or looked up on a river bet a lot if they check, where as if we 3 bet pre, bomb the flop and they call and then we bomb the turn again, they'll give us AK+ and fold a lot.... (again i could be giving ppl too much credit but...)

Hey good luck, I agree with your play on hand 1

Say the dealer gives u 500 chips back that aren't hrs in main event, do u say something or no?

This tourny is going horrible for me so far n I still have starting stack. If I can make a single hand I think I'll b fine. I've gotten every good hand under the gun n nothing besides QQ in late psotion when an ace n fd flop

[Zybomb]

Hell no dont say anything. Were playing for TEN MILLION DOLLARS. This is war

I'll be 2nd in chips and there's 3 shorties... looks solid for me
