I’m trying to take on the Ferguson Challenge. So far, it’s been tough and agonizing. I got top 25 then lost all the money the same day to pocket aces and horrible luck. I’m back to the freerolls again. Honestly, the more you enter, the better you get. You have to learn to not take too many chances. If you think you can steal the pot, go for it! But if you try too many times someone will catch you and it’ll cost you big. Think through every play. Wait and think over every play. That’s my advice.

Hey ohemefgee!
Thanks for you comment and advice! I think you are right.
I should have shove that hand and just hope everyone was folding.

when you’re short stacked like that, you really want to find a spot where you can shove all your chips in preflop so that you have the possibility of picking up the blinds or if you get called you know its probably going to be a coinflip(50/50). if that many ppl are going to the flop with you and you hold 7-7, its almost never any good about 85% of the time. so my advice would be to shove all in in that situation with only 12 big blinds.
