Re: Poetic Justice
On a similar note, there is a guy in our regular game that's trying to introduce the concept of checking it down when 2 players are against a 3rd who's all-in. Some of the others kinda get it, but forget it; the others don't get it at all. The problem is that he only tries to educate others when he's one of the 2 up against the all-in. On the one hand, I'd like some of the players to pick up on this idea; on the other, part of what I like about our game is that, while it's fairly competitive, it's still low-key.

And of course checking it down isn't allways the smartest play. Some where along the way the idea that one should not bluff at a dry side pot (although I have alrady demonstrated one exception to this) has been misunderstood by many to mean you should not bet at a side pot. If you think your hand is good you very often should bet either for value or to eliminate the draw. |
