\"solid\" players have NO concept of bubble play
Have played with villian before. Seemed solid until this. (Party $22).
Small stack is all in next hand with blinds and this guy makes a call like this. PS, NOT a bad beat post, still got 1st place. Just blows my mind. Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (4 handed) converter UTG (t115) Hero (t3745) SB (t955) BB (t3185) Preflop: Hero is Button with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t3745 (All-In)</font>, SB calls t855 (All-In), <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>. Flop: (t4900) 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 2 all-in)</font> Turn: (t4900) 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 2 all-in)</font> River: (t4900) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 2 all-in)</font> Final Pot: t4900 Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF"> Hero has Kh 9d (one pair, sixes). SB has 5h 5s (two pair, sixes and fives). Outcome: Hero wins t2790. SB wins t2110. </font> |
Re: \"solid\" players have NO concept of bubble play
I fold this PF based on BB's and UTG's stacks. I'd rather deal with him on my own terms and not in pushbot mode.

Re: \"solid\" players have NO concept of bubble play
Well, you're missing out on lots of opportunities to pickup chips via bullying if you fold this PF. Also, I don't think OP was asking...he was just demonstrating the lack of basic bubble knowledge by many out there playing 22's.

Not exactly a revelation. People will call you with any pair when they shouldn't? Okay...those of us who have played more than 20 games could have told you that. Not to be a dick, but c'mon man. This hand is remarkably unremarkable. |

[/ QUOTE ] You may be correct, I just don't think a push here with level 6 blinds is that much of a winfall. Now if the stacks were different, I could see it. Granted, the BB is only calling with AA or maybe KK, but I'd much rather push any two on level 7 or higher on the bubble. |
Re: \"solid\" players have NO concept of bubble play
Bad push by hero. Why are you risking that many chips on that hand? You aren't a short stack buddy. Stealing is one thing, but why risk being called by the BB?
Calling with a pair certainly isn't the best, but your play isn't top notch either. |
