agreed the talk of DM's bankroll is almost completely irrelevant, im sure he doesnt want to loose a £4k pot, but we wanna play +EV poker more than anything.

Suprised you folded

I disagree. Reckon if this was a 1/2 game sitting just as deep he snaps.


I agree with Bedi here. DMorgan says he played the hand to induce this kind of action and then folded vs a tilting drunk reloading guy.

winning £8k is much better than winning £2k Smiley

bt i get what your saying, loosing £2k is worse if the utility value of that £2k is higher than the value of the additional £6k you could win, if that's the case thoguh you need to snap leave the table, not saying I've always done this in the past but I think DM would do if he were in that situation as he's clever chap

we have a set. yay!

I cant find a fold here against this sort of villain. it's not '400bbs' it's just 'some chips'.  I might nit roll for a second before wagering my remaining chips.

I think you saying he has never overbet like this in all the time you have played together is more relevant than him playing 80% of hands and being drunk.  That said my initial thoughts were that it was a clear call but the more I think about it you are either slightly ahead or a long way behind and folding in those spots is never awful.  I like the fold but don't think I would have been smart enough to do it at the table.

Having seen him snap refuse any deal 4handed @ the deepstack last year, i dont think scared money is an issue here. It's all about the EV for someone like Dan and he made the -EV fold :p
