Button folds. Small blind folds. Big blind, looks at his cards, looks up at you, and announces "ALL IN". He has approx 12,000 chips. Call? No Call? Title: Re: Call?

Post by: TightEnd on December 28, 2007, 10:58:12 PM Is this a trick question? *sigh* give the man your answer and why!!! my unimportant view...yes you have to call, and I may well have pushed in rather than done a standard raise to start with, gives you the option of everyone folding Title: Re: Call?

He's thinking i am short stacked, my range of hands to do it with there is massive, he's calling all day long!?? Title: Re: Call?

He's thinking i am short stacked, my range of hands to do it with there is massive, he's calling all day long!?? no he's not and yes he is..which is what you want..you want him to call you with a wide range of hands..you just got unlucky that you were called by one that dominated you. Title: Re: Call? Post by: TightEnd on December 28, 2007, 11:08:47 PM He's not passing AQ there any day of the week surely? He's thinking i am short stacked, my range of hands to do it with there is massive, he's calling all day long!?? of course, but you have fold equity over weaker hands he might hold and he can put you to the test, where you might pass after yr standard raise, with these same hands if he re-raises ie you are putting decision on him not putting yourself in a bad spot Title: Re: Call?

Title: Re: Call? Post by: TightEnd on December 28, 2007, 11:10:37 PM because I should never post after more than two beers
Title: Re: Call? Post by: turny on December 29, 2007, 02:37:37 AM also..5 runners paid from 19?...that's just nuts [/quote] reason being is because its our "home" game and is played for fun and an evenings entertainment rather than looking to fleece each other. cant poker ever be played for enjoyment? spreading the money around so everyone continues to enjoy our wondeful game? or do we always have to play to fleece anyone we may play including our friends?
