PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t400 (9 handed) converter

MP2 (t7926)
MP3 (t430)
CO (t14677)
Button (t3248)
SB (t7267)
BB (t3028)
UTG (t10298)
UTG+1 (t6210)
Hero (t435)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
2 folds, Hero raises to t435, 6 folds.

Final Pot: t635

With an ante of 25, I raised the pot 10 above the BB (400) and the BB folded, saying "just take it". I wonder how bad his cards were if he couldn't make a call that was giving him 10:1325 pot odds...lol

Some people may almost question this as collusion for him folding here. I guess good for you but I would be pissed if i was another player at the table and he folded here.

I did that once by accident, thought it was more than 10 chips.

I had 73o in the BB and hit check/fold. Some guy went all in for 1.2BBs and took down the pot when noone called.

lol. Even if they only dealt him a 2 and the card that has rules on it he should have called.

Heck,

If he'd been dealt two jokers he shoulda called for $10 chips... the odds of a split pot were worth that. Alone.

That was ultra dumb and you should put him down as such. in the Pstars notes.

Only when you are playing prison rules, and then you get raped afterwards for cheating. That's why I always value fold my jokers.

Jokers are two of the extra cards you get when you crack a deck open - the third is the card with the "rules" etc - all of which you discard. Jacks - are the ones you are referring to. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]:
