Default Re: Definition of the Stop n Go, I pulled last night

Stop and go into an almost empty side pot when you have very little chance of winning the main pot so you are reducing the chance that a player will be eliminated!!! Awesome stop'n'go play man, it's especially sweet cause you are second to act, which rarely happens in stop'n'gos but somehow it did for you.

nice to see it worked for you.

With 2 blinds after this hand and an SB to pay, considerations of knocking out 1 person when pay structure only goes up when 4 get knocked out go out the window. To me the chance SB folds (which if he had a strong hand he would have pushed PF or Post flop) is worth 1/2 a BB guaranteed when I only have 2. Not to mention I still might have live cards, which I did.

Ok guys, I guess it's technically not a SnG. but point was I made the conscious decision PF when it's checked to me to push any flop rather than push PF b/c it would have more fold equity.
