1) Please for christ include a hand history or something easier to read.

2) There's no reason to raise to 6BB preflop.

3) Don't post results.

4) Of course you [censored] call.

why no reason to rais X6 how would you play in from the button ? 3 people in the pot before you decide ?

See, you didn't mention in your crappy post that there were three limpers. Just post the hand history, but that raise size is probably all right with three limpers. Maybe 5BB.

So sorry about your bad beat. Just be glad there is an idiot out there calling 6x BB raises with 57, if there werent you would make a lot less money in the long run.

sorry for the "crappy" post. played 3 tables when it happened and wanted to ask you guys what you think .

i think i have seen way to many of those today.
did not expect it to happen on a 100+9 table .

anyhow , it happens to many times. and i wanted to think
are there any known signs in the ONLINE world of poker to recognise you are beat in these situations ?

Please understand I'm not trying to be rude here. If you have to ask that question you should not be playing $109s.

u are right on the principals but not correct in general.
in fact , i begin to think that in early tourney stages
the move should be to fold and to take the IDIOT for SURE
on one of the next hands.

MID tourney it is realy a strugle if to call or not and depends on his / yours STACK SIZE.

and late tourney , this is 100% call.
