Auction take 2: Austrian Auction

No ofc not paul ( <3 you muchly!) - not sure securing 1% but driving up prices is a good thing.

how's he driving up the price? Everyone pays same as lowest bid don't they?

[gatso]

it doesn't matter what the ho bid, he could've offered 100.0, 5.0 or 0.1 for 1%. the price still would've been 1.33 for everyone

K I misunderstood

[mulhuzz]

Seems real.

[EvilPie]

Am I misunderstanding or is what paul did dickish and stupid for buyers and the buyers market?

I think it was very clever.

Hats off.

Would have been funny if no one else bid and he was stuck to pay 5 though.

It'll be funny next time if 29 other people have the same idea.

What can I say? The guy truly loves the game. Don't mind exits like that tbh, although you guys who had a piece probably do, but these things happen and I got my money in ahead (that pot was about 50k at 200/400) so no embarrassing failed triple barrel bluff to explain on here. Not that I'd mind that either, it'd be more interesting at least.
