Buh, I think it would be better if you had a stack left after the raise. If he had enough stack to bust him he would probably fold Ace with bad kicker. As it is he might call with 9s.

Having no stack behind you should make it worse for him to call with a draw, but I wouldn't count on him seeing it that way.

Edit: That said, you could make an argument (to Lorinda) that you need this pot.

Being that it's the first hand and he got a ton of callers, the flop push is pure insanity.

If he's gonna bet that much pre-flop I think pushing that flop isn't so bad. Sure he's losing to AK, AA, KK and probably KQ but chances are that other hands were calling him (I'm only worried much about AK here).

Meh....yeah, the play is also so un-Gigabet I'm not sure how it even relates to any thread having to do with Giga.

PVS: In the 109s this is an acceptable way to play the hand vs. many opponents. You have *just* enough chips behind to make the allin raise viable here.

I don't think it's FPS. You know hero doesn't have an ace, and you are hurting for chips. It's tough to make that play with so little behind, but IMO it's worth the risk considering you are desperate.
