Default friends ?

above all else you have to be loyal to friends

$200+$15 - down to 3 - i had 3,000 and the guy on my right had $6500 - the guy on my right was plenty aggressive - he built a stack from fearless pushing and bullying

i was the SB with the blinds at 200/400 - big stack limps - i have 10s6s so i complete - BB raises his remaining $75 and we both call

flop is Ks 10h 2s - check/check

turn is 3h - check/check

river is 6d - i go into the tank - i bet the minimum - big stack folds and i win

i'm thinking i'm a crap friend

If you wouldn't bust your own grandma on the bubble in a SnG you're not meant to be a poker player!

You have friends when playing poker? Before and after, maybe.....but not during. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I was big stack in a recent SNG by a good way, with 4 left and found the 3rd chip position guy pretty annoying. I folded a decent hand to shortstack to try to get him over 3rd place guy.

You can guess what happened -- shortstack comes flying back, I get drawn out on twice and end up 4th.

Grandma dies every time now.
