Default Re: Mini Step 5 - am I a complete wimp?

i mean there are a bunch of times when this has happened and i have called and been shown 55 or 66, my idea is i flopped TPTK on a pretty non-threatening board HU im willing to lose a buyin.

Thanks for the responses guys. I think maybe you're all correct and I made an error. If the bet looks fishy (and it did), it's more likely to be a bluff and I should call. I still think he played it badly though; if he was determined to win the pot regardless, he could have done this more easily be check-raising me. I was bound to bet and I would have had little difficulty believing a set if he had check-raised. If this had happened in the $11/$22's, I wouldn't have bothered posting this - I would have called anyway. I do wonder though if the skill gulf between the $22's and this level is as big as I thought it would be, as I saw some horrendous play in this tourney.

An interesting post as far as the effects of playing over your bankroll.

Perhaps instead of counting number of buyins there are in one's bankroll, one should count the number of 1st prize payouts one has.

Sorry to say but I think folding here is completely ridiculous.

This is one of the worst folds I've ever seen*.

*I've seen worse posted, but they're all pretty close to this one.
