... except for maybe the freemoney principle. My image is good, and this player both did not give me reason to believe he would minraise a big pair and was not a super calling station. There is nothing in my history at this table that would make it seem like I might pull this, and I've never played with Button before.

Re: Ok, I am CERTAIN this hand is obvious...
I like the push when you have plenty of chips to withstand someone making a poor call (which seems to happen all the time). With just a few hundred more then the 3rd place guy, I don't know how much I like this play. Seems like the risk:reward ratio is pretty high here.

Don't expect them to suddenly get smart on you and fold when they should. 2) Because they are idiots, FPS stuff like this is completely unnecessary. |

I've got like 600 (I setted queens on the flop and the board four-straighted [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] ). Tons of limpers, flop comes 455 rainbow. SB checks, I check, guy to my right (don't remember if he was UTG or not, but trust me $5 + .5 people don't know if they're UTG) bets t120, and it folds around to me. This is an easy push for me because I know 99% no donkey bets out with a 5 there. He calls with KJo... Almost forgot first rule of low-limit SnGs--I bet because they'll call. |

I guess I'm the only one who thinks that the risk / reward ratio of this play is a little off. I know that your move is predicated on the presence of the small stack, but I'm not a big fan of it for that very reason. Putting your tournament at risk on the hopes that your opponent has a brain seems a little FPS to me actually. Granted, button mini-raised, but he did it with the super bigstack still to act in the SB. He could've simply laid back and tried to fold ITM, so he obviously has SOMETHING. Why risk your tournament (essentially) on the hope that he folds? [/ QUOTE ] |
