Re: Anybody go to the felt here?
Fold. UTG pays the BB next, he'll be at 690 and you'll have 1205 with two big stacks able to push him out if they don't fold around to you and let you do the pushing.
Or, perhaps the big stacks...

Re: When to begin stealing??
I play Bodog instead of Party, and I like level 4... 30/60 to start stealing blinds when appropriate, it's just shy of another 100 chips on my stack, and slowing moving from 2200 to 2500 in that...

Re: Does anyone not lose their stack here?
I go broke here. Similar happened to me on the first hand of a 33 yesterday. Get dealt 44 in the SB. EP raises from 10 to 40. I call, BB calls. Flop is A 5 4, two clubs. I bet about 90 (pot of...

Re: what do i do???
I always get screwed at the same point. You're the BB for 300 in hand 1, it's only 345 more to call, you're almost compelled to for the 940 chips already in the pot. 35o, though, could be a legit...

Re: Straight flush on turn - now what?
I'd go 150, maybe 175 if I thought they both might call... just enough to give Ah and Kh proper pot odds to chase what they think are "the nuts". Can't go lower than 100 here after the bet was 100...

Re: What should I defend with?
Guess I'm wrong, I can accept that.
So the corrollary is, if the chip leader has to fold anything but AA and KK, as the 2nd place stack, once it's 4-handed, I should go all in every hand that's...

Re: What should I defend with?
Maybe I'm just crazy.
The problem for me against this guy is, I can't be too "selective" because if he's got QJs and I've got AKo, he's going to suck out on me 40% of the time and I'll be...

What should I defend with?
Late in a Bodog 33, it's 4-handed.
Blinds are 150/300
UTG: Short1 (1100)
Button: Villain (3100)
SB: Short2 (1200 -150 = 1050)
BB: Hero (4600 -300 = 4300)
UTG folds. Button moves all...

Re: Is this bubble push idiotic?
You've (probably) got two live, suited cards, which is ideal for the situation. And connected to boot. If he calls, he calls. It's the same to you either way... a fold you pick up a blind, a call...

Re: How do you usually lose ?
Usually it's a steal with good cards gone bad first which lowers my chips. Then, a forced call... short stack goes all in for less than a full raise, and I'm in the BB and must call with my JTo. ...

Re: Is this unethical
I'd do it too. I'd rather be facing a table full of scared players who are feeding me 7-8BB every orbit, than a table of guys in the money and looking at my stack as the shortest route to a doubleup.
