Wow! Sick that you would fold here. Two big stacks war-ing. Three-bettor gonna be light so, so often. You have to get this in.

[Royal Flush]

This is an easy spot though....

[The Squid]

These guys just clicking buttons putting in dead money for you to pick up. Also initial raiser will prob make big folds to your 4-bet and maybe even 3-bettor will make a hero fold. That's what makes tournament 'soft.'

I took a super-nitty line here and folded.

Thinking was lots of easier spots/dead money elsewhere.

Thoughts on this?

Just give up n go home if I'm doing this?

so super excited about putting money in the pot here.

did you look at the payout structure?

3855/call.

+ what squid says

[cambridgealex]

I would vlikely have made the same mistake but the payout structure was not really a concern of mine after about 20 minutes . Why was it so different? To pay out all the bounties? I thought they were just freebies haha

[titaniumbean]

not only was it 4k - 800 no payjump but like no money at all really until final 50, then rofl big jumps.

hence you should have been joke happy to keep getting it in in these spots and look to continue to be aggro from 35k players down to 50 lol.

[Royal Flush]

I had no idea about the payouts either and actually cashed in the thing lol

yeh it was joke tilting watching so many people just folding down to not ladder whilst I kept picking up 93o lol. interesting dynamic though.
