Example 5
You're halfway the tournament and there's nobody at your table with a small stack. The blinds are 50/100. A player in middle position raises to 300. All other players fold towards you. You're in late position and you have . What should you do?

Answer:
You should fold. It is dangerous to play an Ace with a bad kicker against a raiser. Only if you're an advanced player and you have a feeling of the opponent you're dealing with, you can consider playing this hand.

Example 6
You're in the big blind, halfway the tournament, you have a stack of 10.000, the blinds are 100/200 and you get . Everyone folds towards a player in middle position who raises to 800. This player also has 10.000. All other players fold. What should you do?

Answer:
You should raise. The size of your raise should be not too big in order to avoid forcing your opponent to fold, however it should be big enough for your opponent to make a mistake if he calls your bet. In case you raise the minimum (1.600) you'll have chance on a small pot however you also face the risk of loosing a big one. In case you go all-in you might risk that your opponent even folds a KK. Therefore, a raise of around 3.000 is perfect. It will give your opponent a difficult decision to make. In case he calls you have to be prepared to go all-in at the flop.

Example 7
You're halfway the tournament and your stack is 8.000. The blinds are 200/400. A good player in middle position with a stack of 20.000 raises to 1.600. All other players fold. Your on the button and you have . What should you do?

Answer:
You should raise and go all-in. You know that this opponent in that position will raise with many different hands, which means that you probably have the best hand. He will probably fold most hands and the times that he will call you still have a 50% chance to win. To just call and then miss your flop would be dramatic for your stack.

Example 8
You're halfway the tournament and you and all other players have around 1.500. The blinds are 25/50. The player under the gun raises to 200. This person is known by you as a player that only play good starting hands (=thight). All other players fold, you are on the button and you have . What should you do?

Answer:
You should fold. Many players tend to call in this situation however you're risking 13% of your stack when you call! In case both of you had around 4.000 in chips you could have called (around 5%). This bet is just too much.
