What makes it particularly delicious is that he bases the size of his Flop lead not on the pot (3890) but on the size of my remaining stack (11620).

Guess he is thinking any pair is in the lead when heads up....bless his soul...

This was from last night's 7PM $1.00 + .10 with 100 or so players to go before ITM. If I may toot my horn a little bit, I went very far in this one as well when 77 < AJ for 10th place...so close to a second FT in just 5 events. Reveiwing the hand though, I can't have too many regrets about my 77 push.

I think I remember reading that you had recently given low stakes limit a try. And I know you like multi-table SnGs. I would encourage you to try a few of these large field $1.00 tournies. C'mon in, as they say, the water's fine.

EDIT: They do take up a significant block of time, though.
