Default Re: Seeding the pot


Most insane thing I've ever heard to be honest. It's a funny idea but unfortunately should be completely useless.

This reminds me of a very unimportant concept that I use sometimes but I'm sure its hardly valuable at all. Basically when its 4 handed and the cutoff/button limps, and I have a hand in the SB where I feel like calling a half a bet is correct based on my hand value and overall situation, I sometimes fold if it's close. The reason for this is that I feel like headsup play somehow creates more chaos and a greater chance for someone to bust. (ie someone may play 2nd pair much stronger against 1 opponent than 2.)

Anyway please realize that the above is something I only do if the decision between calling/folding in the SB is very close.

I just think it's funny all of the random and basically meaningless concepts people try to figure out, my above one included. Bascially everyone should be an absolute expert on pushing and folding and learn to play that part of the game with nearly 100% accuracy. Unfortunately based on the posts here, not everyone does that and until they do they should probably work on that and not worry about random exotic plays that have little to no bearing on your results.
