    Tilting a bit, should I have just pushed preflop with suited K4? Or is this an insta-fold? Ante's are $75 by the way...

    How many people left? When is the bubble etc.?

    Assuming you aren't on the bubble for a major cash, 1st hand I push preflop everytime.

    2nd hand I push but checking and pushing any flop isn't too bad I suppose. As played you have to go broke.

    Both hands your M is tiny, you're getting in with almost any two cards.
    For Free Money, Rakeback and some 6x Ongame bonuses, I recommend PokerSource.

    I recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.

    1st hand - push or fold. you're likely to skip the bb next hand, so you still have some life after the blinds pass.

    2nd Hand - I'll push here to hopefully push SB out and get it heads up vs other guy.

    This was after the bubble, ~150 people left from the initial 1100 entrants (one of those $0.10 + $50 Pstars tournies). The blinds are so high that people are dropping like flies, so I could probably just check/fold my way to the next payout level -- but the difference in pay was not worth it ($0.21 vs $0.24 I think) -- I'd rather risk trying to make it to the top 10 ($1 > payouts)...

    Your limp in hand 1 just made me vomit a little in my mouth. Push or fold, my friend, push or fold.
