    Default Standard fold?

    Back to back QQ.. second time around board texture kind of fuzzy. I figured weak ace with the limp yet call of a PF raise or possibly even 44.

    1st hand: your either WA/WB so folding is the easier option on that board. Any stats on MP1?

    2nd hand: Why did you check the turn? Was it hoping to induce that kind of bluff?? Just shove the rest of your chips in!

    Honestly, I checked the turn because I got trigger shy. My stack says I should of just fired the bullet but I thought I might be beat.

    MP1 shows VP:64 Google Page Ranking:8 AF:3.0

    Just started using poker tracker so not sure what stats you want. I barely understand how to read the damn thing.

    For the first hand, just out of interest.

    You are close to a coinflip against an 8% range according to pokerstove. It wont let me copy and paste from pokerstove though for some reason?!?

    I usually do but I didn't like the fact that I was first to act. I guess if I just shoved all in or shoved over the top it would let me know if I was up against KK+ or AK AQ

    Player is out now with some crazy hand he/she went all in on. I guess I could have called but it would have meant my tourny life so I think the fold was possibly best option.

    Yes I agree that folding is the best option.

    First hand is standard imo. With three other players seeing the flop one of them has an ace almost always, even with two on the board.

    Second hand is an easy shove PF, even if everyone folds you increase your stack by 1/3. The CO's min3bet is kinda worrying but if he's donkish enough to min3bet he's donkish enough to stack off with A9o.
