    Aces getting cracked is std, I don't know why people hate when they lose with them, or *expect* to win with them.

    Like yeah, it sucks he flopped the nuts, but gg, and go get 'em in the next one.

    My min raise is 5-10bb's in these tourneys early on. I want a raise all-in and call. Then if that flop happens, so be it.

    No, not this.

    3x UTG no ante is fine here and anywhere, doesnt matter "which" tourney it is.

    We are trying to extract value with the best possible pre flop hand, not get a bunch of folds.

    I did. I won the next 45man I played. :)

    I just like the pre-flop call with Q-9s - Actually, I prolly call preflop with that hand too.
