Play along with Flushy number 2

[Royal Flush]

I feel the same a2m, problem is i think its a stupid bluff for him to make, i wasnt expecing a bluff!

but you see it constantly in the first level of tourneys. Massive positional overbets with very skinny semi bluffs, i sometimes call with very average hands and hope they miss. Although this gives them a few more outs usually and they seem to hit far more often than they should.

Cousin Merve, is that you?!?!?!?!?!

Lol, sorry to disappoint, but no.

By leading on the turn i might suck them both in, if i am left to check raise the player in LP i lose the BB.

If you bet 500 i think you lose them both and take the pot which in hindsight would be preferable to losing your stack.

If you do bet 150 i think you get an extra call from the bb but the utg may well not make his big semi bluff. Then you have to lay it down on the river to his all in.

Definitely in the second case but maybe not in the first you are likely to face him reraising you all in. He will believe that there is a strong chance you will fold and he is definitely nuts. I agree, it does build a big pot but then you are also busted.

So why do it? Why take the chance with a marginal hand when you know that there will be a better opportunity just around the corner. If its obvious that a certain player is just leaking chips here there and everywhere you know you'll get them eventually if you are patient enough.The number of times i've seen bad players doubled up by good players who try this with marginal hands when they should know better. (not that i ever complain as it gives the bad player who is an easier target more chips and cripples the good player so that they are no longer a danger)

I just can't help myself sometimes, i know they have nothing and just to prove this i call.

I often manage to put them on exact hands but i should probably be considering my tournament life more than wanting to make monkeys of them.

One day i shall swing through the trees like a proper player.
