This is what you want to happen and you should quickly learn why. [/ QUOTE ] Woah woah, he didn't specify anything except that he was low on chips pre-flop (i assume) and didn't like the SB calling, why the snotty response? What he really wants is a fold to pick up the blind unless he has a great hand (which he probably doesn't have if he's sounding like he doesn't want to even play the bigstack at all) which wasn't specified, pretty much nothing was specified except he doesn't like to be called while low on chips in the BB.....if he doesn't want to be called why would he want to be raised?? Thanks for the awesome reponse, very condecending just like I like. Type back something educational to explain your answer which DOES makes sense if the missing variables were included in the original post. If he had a premium hand and the highstacked SB did raise, of course he'd want that. Please try to type polite, so very tired of coming across attitudes on this forum, it takes everything away from them. We all just want to talk and learn from these posts, that's the point, what people don't enjoy is when they get a reponse like you gave to me. I havn't played my whole life, if you know something state it like a gentleman and you'll get a thank you most of the time. Read what you wrote and try to take it in a friendly way, you can't. It was totally snotty. No need for it. If you think your opinion is right, state why and it will be respected. I don't mind posting a false opinion or idea on accident if indeed I'm wrong, the upside is I get to learn why I might be wrong and apply it to my game in a (+) way if someone like you could learn to give a friendly educational reponse. l8r [/ QUOTE ] Who are you addressing? Poster A: I hate it when the SB just CALLS the short stacked BB. Poster B: Wouldn't you hate it more if the SB raised? Poster A (or is it C?): NO! You should like that and understand why. So which post are you objecting to? By your own post it sounds like B, but it might be C.

Re: biggest SNG pet peeve.
read the origianal post more clearly.
HE IS NOT THE SB. IT OBVIOUSLY HAS BEEN FOLDED TO THE SB. His hand is therefore irrelevant as there is only the SB and the BB to play. IF the big stack just calls the small stacks BB he gives the BB a free look at the flop and a chance to win the blinds (very important to the small stack.) Hence you want the big stack to raise the small stack or fold, not give equity to aid the survival of the small stack. If you are on the bubble you want that small stack gone not being given free chances to look at the flop. My repsonse was harsh but for your own good. What you said was so inhrently wrong that you needed to be shocked out of your deep ignorance. If you cant take advice in a harsh form, perhaps start looking for another forum as I am mild compared to many on here.

I think you missed this. I edited my post.

If that's true then I totally get the point of all this. Why is it necessary to be harsh on here..you get a kick out of it or something? Also, ignorance is making a rude uneducated statement based on nothing you know or even tried to learn before bashing someone......all i did to start this off was ask a question and you slammed me for my question when I never even pushed that I thought i was right. There IS something wrong with that!! If you wanted to shock me out of my so-called "ignorance", perhaps giving the correct answer w/ an explaination like you just did (and i thank you) would have accomplished that. I'm not sure why you need to be so combative, teachers who yell at students aren't more effective so i'm not sure where you're coming from. I just want to learn, not be shocked. I hope at least one person sides with me.

"teachers who yell at students aren't more effective so i'm not sure where you're coming from"
Dont have the time or inclination to be your "teacher" therefore have to take short cuts.
