Default Re: Chip Leader - Mandatory Call?

[ QUOTE ]

What do you think about trying to keep the short stacks around? In this particular tourney, there was a $100 difference in price money between 6th ($500) and 7th ($400). I believe a short stack hanging on is a huge advantage for the chip leader, especially when his lead is nearly 2 to 1 on the next largest stack. Most players are willing to wait for the short stack to bust out before gambling with a medium strong hand.

bingo. all the more reason to fold it. that BB guy didn't know what he was talking about. (NB- when it comes to poker, common knowledge is often wrong. that's why we can make so much money [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img])
