Title: Do pot odds justify the call? Post by: tantrum on October 12, 2006, 02:24:39 PM I watched the game and this what happened:
Ok Fuljaus is an underdog but the pot odds are good to call; he has to pay 13.5k to win 53.5 k I just wonder if this is a way to play. What about Fuljaus 1st call of all in?

So no he wasnt getting odds to call! Title: Re: Do pot odds justify the call? Post by: thetank on October 12, 2006, 02:59:16 PM He's 4 to 1 to beat the other two guys.
Calling the final raise of 13.5k to win 53.5k. Pot is giving him just about 4-1. So sort of has the odds for calling the raise. (Of course there are more factors than just pot odds that go into a tournament call like this though, for instance he doesn't know you definately have 2 pair, and doesn't want to be labelled as weak, his stack size, what knocking you out means, etc...) Calling the original 10.9k is a far worse play than calling the 13.5k raise may/may not have been. Pot was only giving him 5/3 at that point. 903 games 0.005 secs 180,600 games/sec Board: 8h 6s 4d Dead: equity (%) win (%) tie (%) Hand 1: 56.5891 % 56.59% 00.00% { 6c4s } Hand 2: 20.7087 % 20.71% 00.00% { Ks7s } Hand 3: 22.7021 % 22.70% 00.00% { 9h8d } Title: Re: Do pot odds justify the call? Post by: tantrum on October 12, 2006, 03:22:50 PM I have only posted this hand as sometimes I think I missing something here.
When I get weird calls like that, I think perhaps I am going crazy, and that my limited poker knowledge is deteriorating. I knew that the other player was on the draw and did not have a set, and neither of them had str8. But Fuljaus call was so weird, that I thought perhaps his twisted mind saw something that i am oblivious to. Title: Re: Do pot odds justify the call?

If no-one made calls like this, we'd all just be paying rake. |
