how do you usually bust?
i don't have any data, but my sense is that most of the time when i bust out it's because i try to steal with a marginal hand and get caught.
i'm guessing that's the case for most people, right? |

My records show if it is early on, it's getting it in with the best of it, but the majority is on/near the bubble in a coin flip.

Re: how do you usually bust?
Yeah, I tend to bust out in exactly that way. A2s, JT on the button, four or five handed, 55 in EP, etc. Basically, I start pushing LOTS of hands in position when the game is short-handed (assuming my stack size is fairly small) and typically that'll put me out 5-6th or get me into 1st or 2nd. Perhaps it is my relatively small sample size, but I find myself not running into alot of 3rd or 4th place finishes relative to 1st, 2nd, 5th and 6th.

Re: how do you usually bust?
My stats are very similiar. Lots of 5ths, 1st and 2nds. Me like that. How about those incredible suckouts too. The Heroes do suckout sometimes. Pushing crap into BB who holds big pockets. They go apeshit when you suck out on them.

Re: how do you usually bust?
My favoite is the guys who get super pissed when my T9s beats their AK, like they somehow should win every time from that position... But in terms of getting berated by other players (and you'll have to bear in mind that I play 10+1 mostly), the best is to be in the BB for 200 chips, have a 445 chip stack move in on you and he goes nuts when you call with 92o. Those are my favorite hands to win for pure entertainment value [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Lot's of fifths, and an uncomfortable number of 4th's for me as well. |

Thanks for posting this guys, I was worried I was stealing to aggressively.

Re: how do you usually bust?
I've also noticed that when I'm caught stealing, it's usually by a hand that had no 'right' to call, and quite often is even a worse hand ($33s)!!!
Also funny how often it's the river card that busts you (not saying PP is rigged, just that it's messing with your mind). |
