Re: This is standard, right?
Why no on the first one?
I have less than 3bb left, and a pocket pair seems like a good gamble to double up. There's still 5 left too??? Shooby |

And avoiding a coinflip is preferable. You still have some fold equity if you're the first to push. This guy isn't going to fold and you're either way way behind or flippin the coin. |

Re: This is standard, right?
Yeah, your right, 6 bb it is. I see your point now.
I was looking at this "200/400 Tourney Texas Hold'em Game Table (NL)" I was mistaking the 400 for the bb. What does the 200/400 mean? Shooby |

Re: This is standard, right?
that is if it were limit, 200 would be the bet PF and flop 400 turn and river

Re: This is standard, right?
because it would be nice to shoot for better than 50/50 at best. Blinds are big, people can bust, you arent even in the blinds. Now if youare BB and have 1/3 of your stack in thats a different story, but thats not the case.

Re: This is standard, right?
1) i don't like... you will be called, and will be hoping for a coinflip... if there wasn't a limper or raiser in front of you, an all-in would be good.
2) yes, i would call this. |

Re: This is standard, right?
Isn't a coinflip a good thing in this situation?
I have 3bb. Crapshoot time. Shooby |
