you're kinda new here so I'm guessing you don't know how things roll around here. Let me tell you honestly before someone rips you a new hole. People HATE bad beat posts around here.

fold preflop

Hey Eric, instead of being and idiot, how about you comment on the hand? I don't consider this a bad beat because I still have the option to fold, or in some cases beat a busted straight, flush draw, or overpair, the last one very unlikely considering his betting pattern. I'm just looking for someone with half a brain to post their opinion on the hand. Thanks douche.

Do you seriously consider folding this preflop getting 5 to 1?

caretaker1 · #6 10-03-2005, 08:30 PM

Actually, Eric was doing you a kind service that not many would have.

And yes, fold pre-flop, trash is trash. 5-1 against two opponents is not worth it at this stage, when the limper will almost always be ahead of you.

come on man u were complaining about the bad beat not looking for street advice. i didn't complain when my flopped quads got beat yesterday...

#8 10-03-2005, 08:31 PM

Here's my opinion:

1) Never post this crap again, whether it's a joke or not.

P.S. Anybody with half a brain would fold pf?

IM not an expert at this i use to make this call alot but according to some of the better players i think they do fold PF because the limits are so low. Just like in the mcEvoy SnGs he taped he was folding these hands early with bliinds this low.
