Actually, if you dont mind variance, I think a stronger play is to raise an amount that potcommits everyone, then push any flop.

If you'll read my other posts in this thread I also advocate this approach when the stacks are bigger. But in the case where your stack is 800 and two people have already called a 125 raise, that means that the first person calling you gets (not counting the blinds) gets about 1.7-to-1 calling your push. That's enough to get a call in a 20/2, even all-in.

Your friend sir is an absolutely horrible player obviously. With that said, yeah, he should probably fold and stop playing until he takes time to read a book or two or at least learn some of the basic aspects of playing tournament poker.

So I guess you've never donked a play in your life, o wise one?
