OK, im usually paraniod when these kinda things come up but, seriously this is sketchy...
Game #947205240 (Level VIII, Game #8) - 250/500 No Limit Texas Hold'em - 2005/08/26-02:29:47.3 (CST) Table "Tamaketa" ($20 tournament) -- Seat 9 is the button Seat 6: ryan1131 (3,000.00 in chips) Seat 8: vpaces (6,330.00 in chips) Seat 9: jakeopes (670.00 in chips) ryan1131: Post Small Blind (250) vpaces : Post Big Blind (500) Dealt to ryan1131 [ 6h ] Dealt to ryan1131 [ 5h ] jakeopes: Raise All-in (670) ryan1131: Fold vpaces : Fold jakeopes: Winner -- doesn't show cards *** SUMMARY *** Pot: 1,250 | ryan1131 lost 250 (folded) [ 6h 5h ] vpaces lost 500 (folded) jakeopes bet 670, collected 1,420, net +750 [ 7d 9h ] Its was 170 more???? Its either a misclick or what? i dunno but it really pissed me off. I went off for like 5 min about it and ended up winning the thing and feeling like a dick, but still... |

What.. I do this all the time in SNG's. jakeopes obviously has little chance to win, and villain uses this against you. Certainly you'd rather get heads up with him rather than bust out 3rd when there's a small stack like jakeopes around. He lets the small stack stay alive and steals your blinds. Simple

Simple [/ QUOTE ] I hope your joking..its not like we are on the bubble and big stack is preserving the bubble. And btw the stacks following this "classic" were a little too even for my taste: Seat 6: ryan1131 (2,750.00 in chips) Seat 8: vpaces (5,830.00 in chips) Seat 9: jakeopes (1,420.00 in chips) This whole sequence still makes me vomit BTW love the avatar |

Not joking. vpaces is certainly much better off AFTER the hand than BEFORE. I do this often when it gets down to 3 in an SNG.

Ill admit I do this sometimes (not often) with the chip lead on the BUBBLE but ITM? OK its obvious that some background is needed...this player had no clue how to play a bubble, so its not like this player was pushing over the top of my raises with a ss in play.
Nah, he was either highly retarded, highly intoxicated, or highly in collussion.... |

The fact that you want him to call the small stack so small stack busts, makes it very clear, that is: even YOU are thinking about it as a bubble. If it wasn't a bubble situation you wouldn't mind him calling or folding, as you basically don't mind people doing whatever they do, whether it's "right" or "wrong", in a ring game when you're not involved. |

Maybe he's right. I think it's more likely, however, that you're dealing with a donk who doesn't know about pot odds. Ie, he just plays his cards. DON'T correct him; just write a note and hopefully next time you're short stacked he'll be there.

[/ QUOTE ] Im actually leaning more towards this now that I calm down...I know it wasnt for strategic purposes as he had no clue how to play the bubble to begin with...if this is going on at 22, well see me at the 33 tomorrow |

It just sucks that in SnGs sometimes he can steal your EV when you've folded. |
