cheers all.

Tank you are spot on , if ever there was a situation for a stop and go that was it. No way he calls the all in on the flop. Ah well , live and learn.

We're all experts after the event. Not wanting to diss ya.

On plenty of occasions I've seen a big Ace, and lumped in my chips in the heat of the moment. It's easy to do.

In fact, that's maybe one of the principle reasons I wasn't playing in the main event myself this year. Smiley

It's hard to find someone who will fold any cards for 3-1 pre-flop. I tend to find they might fold on the flop between 20-30% of the time though. It's a strong move in that spot for blind defence, and maximizing your chances of tournament survival.

I find some weak players who even lay down a small pocket pair on the flop (when you bet your remaining chips, just a third of the pot.)

I know your not "dissing " me mate. I first thought that the way the situation played out was unavoideable and I did the best I could. I have used the stopand go technique many times and here , in the heat of battle , I didnt even think of it.
I am glad you pointed it out, it improves me as a player.
