Re: Playing blind?
[ QUOTE ]
Playing blind in a $.10-$.20 cash game when you've built a big stack and you're playing short-handed?
If you expecting us to idolize your brass balls, you're a moron.
Such as Colquhoun said, if I have anything half-way decent, I'm raising or re-raising you big time. I'm pushing on all streets and all-in on the river.
Try playing blind in a $2-$5 NL game, then I'll give you some respect.

This isn't a brag post and certainly not looking to be idolized. I don't think of the move as being all that ballsy either. It's mostly just a stupid thing I do for entertainment.
I'm genuinely interested in what you consider half-way decent. A-high whiff on the flop? It's probably the best hand versus a random opponent but do you continue to bet it the whole way to the river?
You bring up the stakes of the game which I do think is very relevant. I'm specifically concerned about LHE because playing blind in NLHE isn't nearly as interesting to me. (i.e. there's only one decision preflop and it's all-in.) In my view, it might even be easier to pull this move off in NL because your fold equity is huge.
