You both got it wrong, Chelsea is the team mkay?

Limping here is hurting your win rate way more than a simple fold ever will. It worked out great this one time, but long term it won't, and since we're encouraged to think long-term and not be result-oriented I'd fold here.

Simply stop limping.

I am having problems with editing comments, often after I have finished editing a comment and i click on "Post" nothing happens. I have to refresh the page and then copy-paste for it to work. I'm using the newest Safari version on a mac (Mac OS X 10.8.2).

Just figured it would be easier to post it in a thread that deals with comments rather than create a new one for just a minor bug.

I´d prefer to either shove or raise in this spot depending on the players left to act. If there are a bunch of fish left to act that are likely to call a min-raise, I'd prefer to shove. Simply to avoid getting into troublesome spots post if a fish calls and i don´t connect with the flop. If they´re more likely to shove over a min-raise, I´d lean towards a min-raise. If I elect to min-raise I agree with Grayson´s post regarding who I'd call and who i would fold too.

My main reasoning behind shoving/raising instead of folding is that the money bubble has just bursted and i am not interested in moving up a couple of pay jumps, for me at this point its FT or bust. Also the blinds are about to hit us and if we don´t find a better spot before the blind go up we risk falling below 10BBs.

There are no set rules on how many buy-ins you need to have before you can move up in stakes, whats most important is that you don´t play scared when you move up to a higher buy-in. Some players feel comfortable with a 30buy-in BR and others need a 100+ buy-ins to feel comfortable(like my self). That being said, I think by following the guidelines outlined by Konstantinos Vatseris you´ll be okey, just remember that there is absolutely no shame in dropping down in stakes.

If you´re playing a bunch of tables I´d probably try to play less tables and pay close attention to what people are calling each other with and to make sure I don´t miss any obvious shove/steal spots. Its so easy to go on auto-pilot while playing sngs, which is not ideal if you haven't played a lot of them. There are also some programs/websites out there that can help you improve your shoving/calling ranges, like SNG wiz. Personally I'm using the free ICM NASH calc. over at holdemresources.net: http://www.holdemresources.net/h/web-calculators/nashicm.html . If you're unfamilar with how to work with a calculator there are a few threads over at twoplustwo that can help you get started.

I absolutely love the idea of not recording a whole 6h+ session but instead recording for 40-50mins at a time, that way we don't have to see you fold a bunch of hands for 25+mins. I also think by doing it this way you´re able to keep your self sharp and focused which will not only help you play better but also improve/keep up the quality of your commentary. I really like the vid too and I am looking forward to the rest of the series!

Personally I tend to find HH reviews boring to watch, however I was not bored when i watched this. Probably not going to be bored when i watch it again. Not only are your commentary very informative but you're also a fun guy to listen to, Keep it up!
