but these guys take risks to maximise their returns huh?

checking the trips on the flop vs two foes on a flushing board.....

how can you call on the end once the second player has called?

was that a bad call tighty??

with only one out to beat me (or maybe holding 2 9's )


i reckoned for the king being out but certainly not the caller,if anything the initial raiser with the big stack,put him on a lil mild bullying

would most have folded here?

I may be completely wrong, but you are facing a bet of $2400 when you have $12k and 10xbb...why waste the chips on a call when at best you are chopping the pot 3 ways?

Even if the first guy is buying the pot the second guy could have 10 10 and up to beat the board but not beat the case K if it is out

Sure. call if its one opponent in case he is playing the board, but its a big ask for BOTH to be playing the board isn't it?

I think it's a poor call too.

Risking 2,400 to win 1,600. In this tournament, I'd let it go every time.

plus any pair higher than 9's has you beat as well

all advice taken on board


this heat has melted my brain methinks

Although an unlikely scenario, there being no pre-flop raise, it can by no means be ruled out.

If there is profit in this situation, it is so marginal that it should be a tournament fold.

Making a mistake doesn't mean you're a big fish with a melted head. This is only a small error (if it's an error at all)

Don't be too disheartened. When they gleefully announce on TV that Texas Holdem is a game that..

"Takes a minute to learn and a lifetime to master"

...they ain't lying.

thats not excellent play at all. wow he made trips. big whoop? but he should of bet earlier in a 4 way pot. for so many reasons!
