just how good are snowmen?

8,8 is a big hand three handed. You are very likely to have the best hand preflop, and in this situation, you are looking to double up so you can make a run for first. Getting all your chips to the center with the best of it has to be the right move here, whether or not you get called.

A stop-and-go might be better than allin. It depends on the opponent.

no doubt that's worthy of an all-in. Did you run into something =[

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes, a call. I'm not sure how he calls me with ATs, but whatever.

Almost same exact situation I faced the other day. 3-handed, min-raised and I auto-pushed back with 99. Got called (and lost to) J9o. Beautiful.

And I still felt the need to post it here for sanity sake.

Wow, I'm flattered. Now if only my BR would appreciate rap...

Yugo is da man, you know -- he's got it goin' on...
Playin' those crazy SnGs from dusk to early dawn.

Homies pushing right and left but he just keeps on foldin'
When he finally calls you, you'll be sad 'bout what you're holdin'

Nah, Chris Daddy Cool from the limit forum used that for a long time and I just started associating it with him. I think he's long ago changed it -- it just surprised me at first.

Who is now trying to figure out if dfscott's rap is original or modified...and if modified...from whom?

I considered the stop-and-go, but I had visions of overcards raining down on me and didn't know if I'd have the cajones to push a KT4 flop.

Well done.

btw - If the villian had pushed, I probably would've called with the snowmen.

[/ QUOTE ]

Me, too. Which makes reraising all-in even easier.

I'd do it with 7's in a flash as well. Would have to whip out my calculator to figure odds with the lower pp's.
