Had a guy call my 11xBB push with 86s yesterday.

Reminds me of that time I was watching Zee in the Party Miliion final table. Guy called Zee's push with Q2 or some trash. And that was with tens of thousands of dollars on the line.

Heck, this happens to me almost every day. 22s and 33s are full of spite callers.

You got pwn3d hard.

Plus: When i saw the title I only opened th ethread to see how FAR this would be from the worst call I have seen, then noted in was preflop... nodded.. then (to my surprise) noted the caller was in fact a dominationg favorite in the hand. Man you must play with some world class players if this is the biggest mistake of a call youve seen

P.S. Your push is terrible. yes, terrible.

Just in case it's not clear, your push is terrible because the guy is obviously a donk. You should only do this against thinking players...

True, but even most donks will still be smart enough to fold a non AA/KK hand here.

EDIT, maybe they won't be that tight but, I still like my push here.

Oh, boy. I have to strongly disagree with your first statement. "First or fourth" is a very common attitude even among otherwise decent players.

although winning this hand is a far cry from wrapping up first. at this point in the tourney with those stack sizes, getting ITM should be 1st priority, IMO.

See my edit, let me put it this way, most donks will fold a hand here that they are limping in the first place.

No, it isn't. This is classic bullying. Two shorties about to bust out, there are lots of players who would call with nothing but AA-KK, many more who wouldn't call with more than AA-JJ, AK.

The call was ridiculously stupid -- it matters not in the least that he ended up being in a dominating position.

However, this is not anything close to the worst call you've seen. If you think it is after 3000+ SnG's, then you haven't been paying close enough attention.

Can we get some context? Had you been making plays like this for a while?
