the loose cannon has 140k in profit atm

do you think its ok to fold aces and kings in his situation to lock up the napt passport.

i think the money is very significant to him because he he comments saying this is 3 years salary to him.

Course if the money means enough you can. Pretty unique situation. Not like a normal cash game where he can just get up and leave. He can't even make a huge over shove pre cos its pot limit pre

Its only worth $50k if you brick every event, if you cash in something its obv worth more.

I think its correct to fold every hand without looking.  He can blind out till the end and be gtd the passport and a nice profit.  Its not a normal cash game, its a game show where you need to make more profit than the other cannons and the best way to hang onto it is fold blind

meh you live once, there's a rich businessmen to your right laying 64vpip and doesnt bet much when he has big hands. (didnt stack hellmuth w/top2vbtm2) I think at least set mining with AA/KK is fine. The guy genuinely seemed over the moon and I was happy for him but I think it was abit of a waste, would much prefer to see a 21y/o degenerate who wanted to spin the money up.

Just horrible, ive played enough cash games with one buy in to my name, those are the hands you are waiting for, each spot should have been a pot raise if he didn't want to play down the streets, 4 betting the kings any day...

i'd be more likely to 4 bet the kings than I would be to play the Aces.
