K9s is a solid hand but often dominated! In a 3 bet pot you flop QJT and AK a very likely hand has you beat. You want to play nutted hands such as pairs to make sets; straights that can make the nuts etc. Suited aces are good bluff hands to 3bet w/ pre flop for example pre flop. Depends on going w/ A rag if your short stacked and what pos and vs who but yes I generally like this thinking to not!
The biggest thing about cash and tournaments is that cash you are almost always deep stacked and people can top up at any time. In tournaments the stack sizes start out the same but quickly change. This means you must be comfortable to play at various stack depths against other various stack depths. That is the biggest difference!
Yes! So true, hurts me when see people berate the dealers! It's not about what happens, how you react to what happens!
JJ from early pos is a very tough hand to play, specially when goes multi way! The best way is to raise standard raise, proceed w/ caution! Remember if it goes multi way even a ten high flop is not always so safe... Ppl can flop sets, two pair, straights, flushes (118 to 1 to flop a flush) but don't be looking to play a massive pot here normally. Pot Control!
Hey! If I ever come to Belgium I will def give you a buzz and would be up for a beer! If you make it to the USA def give me a shout!
I like to play a bit more hands early, getting in to post flop situations in position at early stages is very advantageous & people make big mistakes post flop so seeing flops I like w/ a wider range early on.
I just wrote out a sizable reply and it didn't go thru! ouch!.. let's try again.
Hey! I stream on twitch a fair amount. I will be back Feb 27 - March 4! Make sure to turn on notifications so it will notify you when I go live! Yes Twitch is great and fun way to learn.

This happens to me as well sometimes, making Final Tables is amazing feat! I would suggest to go for it a bit more, shove first in w/ some marginal holdings w/ 10-16 left to stay more relevant. You will take 12-16 more but also 1-3 more which is where the lion share of the money is!Hi Jeff,
I would like to ask you for some pointers on hyper turbo 9-handed NLHE.
The blinds increase so extremely fast and most of the times i reach the FT short-stacked
Your advice will be much appreciated
my best win lolol
