Poker Video: MTT/SNG by iSport (Mid Stakes)

Im halfway through the video and I have some quesions and thoughts so far:

In the beginning with 88 on xQxK board you barrled twice, why? I mean there arent any hands that you get value from, I think its too thin.

~24:40 AKs, you 3b and get called. As you said, the flop is supergood for his range, dont see why you need to be betting. Isnt it more profitable, especially in tournaments to "save" chips and wait for better spots to come up? And even if he has some weaker pair hands, I think its good to take a free card.

meh i usually dont set mine ( and more so OOP) but even a wild loose player i think you do get close to doubling everytime bc his range probably still has a ton of hands that will not be able to let go because he still is an UTG opener. I mean i still don't do it but i see some semi decent merit bc i doubt this player ever fold like 10's on a 9high board which is ideal for trying to set mine.

Definitely not a value bet, looking for a fold there.

I c bet the AK bc ya it does hit a ton of his range but also misses plenty of it. I also have position and I'm going to c bet a huge % of the time here, so it polarizes me a bit hopefully when I do hit that board. I also didn't take much of my stack. Further down the road I'd be looking to save chips though.

Ya I still think its a fold.

yah i agree, just saying this guy is the kinda guy i would be more keen to set mine against if possible
