The easiest Pass I ever saw.

I've made a grand without ever risking my stack. Why get greedy? I'll drive home just as happy with a £1k profit as I will with a £5k profit. And a lot happier than if I lost a grand playng no-look Scandie Bingo.

Do I need to end wih a smiley?.........

I think you should because I was thinking you might just be serious.

WTF!?!?!?!?!?!?!

How can this ever be a pass?

If you value the money that much why are you sat there still playing? Surely you knew that at some point you were going to end up in this sort of situation? Why else were you there?

You should just get up, pocket the grand and move to another table before you find yourself in this sort of situation.

Another thing. Don't forget that you're not actually in a 4 way pot. Forget the £400 x 4, it's the £1.5k x 3 that you're after. The rest would be a cheeky bonus.

anyone who says pass, GIVE UP POKER NOW!

if we are even thinking baout passing then, we shouldnt be playing this deep.

After the blind guy jams, AQ/AK are happy to get it in behind him. Snap call and collect the huge pot about 50-60% of the time imo.

I hope this is a re-level

i do sympathise with your point of view cos, this is a sick amount of money, especially as you have been on a downswing. this is all about bankroll management really - im guessing that sitting with 1.5k is a large proportion of your bankroll (by large i mean >10%, and i think it may be a fair bit higher than this?)

everyone will have a different opinion on whether or not you should call - it just depends on whether the money would mean enough to them personally to warrant it. if so, you should not be at this table. I realise this is obvious with hindsight, but you must switch down tables (or just sit at another 1-2 table with a nice profit sealed up). If the table is so nice that you do not wish to move, you could always move back later (i think you need to be away for a certain amount of time - an hour?)

i would never sit in a game or tournament with more that 5% of my roll at risk. i know many people who would not move above 2% - work out a figure that is good for you and stick to it.

You are walking out of a nightclub with a plain girl you have successfully pulled when a super fit girl gives you the eye. You have the choice of dumping the plain girl for a shot at super fit girl but obv in doing that you give up your guarantee of sex. However, if the planets are aligned properly and you do successfully score a coup with the hottie you will scoop mind-blowing sex. How much do you want or need sex? That is the question. How long's it been since you last had sex? Is settling for plain sex a sufficient life choice for you? Of course Tikay's gonna settle for whatever sex he can get Smiley. I dunno though, I reckon if you've got a crack at Angelina Jolie maybe you should take it.

Correct. Against 4 random hands you are about 40% to win. So that's 60% to lose.

Anyway, I think it's crazy to ask us whether we want to gamle with your money dude. I watched Bullseye for years when I was a kid and at the end every time Jim Bowen asked the audience what they should do everybody just shouted gambbbbooollll as standard.

that's because everyone wants a speedboat. there's not even enough money in this pot to get a jetski so hardly a realistic comparison

There are people who are happy to lose £1,500? Presumably they are staked, yes?
