Button is loose-passive.
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (3 handed) internettexasholdem.com (http://www.internettexasholdem.com)
BB (t2715)
Button (t3060)
Hero (t4225)
Preflop: Hero is SB with 5/images/graemlins/heart.gif, A/images/graemlins/heart.gif.
Button calls t200, Hero completes, BB checks.
Flop: (t600) K/images/graemlins/heart.gif, A/images/graemlins/spade.gif, T/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t600</font>, BB folds, Button calls t600.
Turn: (t1800) K/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t1000</font>, Button raises all-in [t2260] , Hero has to call t1260 with about 5000 in the pot.
Correct me if I'm wrong but have to almost 100% sure I'm beat here to fold. Folding would be moronic, right? Preflop, is raising a better option than completing?
EDIT: fixed pot amount... it's even worse than I remembered. Nice to know I'm not making incorrect instacalls.
