A stop and go hand to flame
Somewhat late in Stars $10 + $1 rebuy. My thinking was that the big stack who called probably had an Ace, and that the pot was big enough that anything that increased my chances of winning the pot was a good thing. I still would have pushed if an Ace hit on the flop. I was going to push no matter what.
Seat 1: Short Stack (21418 chips) Seat 2: Big Stack (146916 chips) Seat 3: Someone else Seat 4: Someone else Seat 5: Hero (41716 chips) Seat 6: Someone else Seat 7: Someone else Seat 8: Someone else Seat 4 posts sb (3000 chips) Hero posts bb (6000 chips) Dealt to Hero: K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Seat 6 folds Seat 7 folds Seat 8 folds Small stack: Raises 15418 to 21418 and is all-in Big Stack: Calls 21418 Seat 3 folds Seat 4 folds Hero: Calls 15418 Flop: Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Hero: Bets 19998 and is all-in |

Edit: above wasnt very helpful. Basically you're getting your loot in no matter what here, so the only issue is how...Highly unlikely BS will go away preflop, so why not let him see a flop and fold...in essence, he is seeing 3 cards instead of 5 this way...IOW, this is LESS risky, with potentially less profit. I like it...uh... flame away? |

Re: A stop and go hand to flame
i'll tell you when you should never use a stop and go. when there's a dry sidepot and you have a monster vs a large-stacked villian that is pot-committed enough to call your all-in preflop but will throw away the same hand 1/2 the time on the flop when you push.
don't do it again. |
