Title: Pocket Pair EP in Donkfest Post by: GlasgowBandit on April 10, 2008, 12:20:51 AM Table is pretty crazy UTG has just recent moved to table so no info on him but he min raises to 1600, its a turbo MTT and the blinds are just about to increase average stack is around 11k we have 17k or round abouts and are dealt 88 - as I said table is pretty manic and there is likely to be a raise from one of the donks in later position.
Easy fold right? it seems that every time I have folded a small - medium PP lately I have hit a set. Round previous I passed 55 in similar position and hit the set but there was a straight on the turn so I have myself a pat on the back for this I'm finding these situations difficult to gauge lately. I want to conserve chips when we're not near the money and accumulate them with position and when i feel I can maybe pick up pots uncontested.

Is this definite because someone tried telling me different. In all seriousness though, even in live games any time I have passed a small to medium PP lately I have hit a set either on flop or one of the later streets any any time I seem to play them I get skelped with 3 overcards!
