A pf fold by Strassa in the 700k
A hand from Strassa's great performance in last Sunday's 700K.
Roughly 60 players left.
8 handed.
Blinds 3000/6000 with a 300
Seat 1: kevmike (137353 in chips)
Seat 3: fi5h (46884 in chips)
Seat 4: sabbis (39556 in chips)
Seat 5: Ross2021 (170378 in chips)
Seat 6: strassa2 (111405 in chips)
Seat 7: f!v3_4c3s (108704 in chips)
Seat 8: afaust (48430 in chips)
Seat 9: gambler21 (200849 in chips)
afaust: posts small blind 3000
gambler21: posts big blind 6000
4 folds
strassa2: raises 11500 to 17500
Button folds
afaust: raises 11500 to 29000
BB folds.
strassa2: folds
afaust collected 43400 from pot, doesn't show hand
So there's t54,900 in the pot, the villain has t33,636 behind, and it's t11,500 for Strassa to see a flop.
On pure math, Strassa has proper (implied) odds to see a flop with nearly any two. Nevertheless, there are arguably a variety of good reasons to fold here as the outcome of this hand will have ramifications on Hero's image and accordingly his ability to accumulate chips in future hands.
I thought it might be an interesting topic for discussion.
