no.
i'm not.

in fact, contrary to what bugstud said...I don't think this is a great laydown. it's a pretty obvious one.


If it's an expert player (as you guys indicated) then it is likely an AK that he doesn't want to miss a flop with...or he is just value-allin-ing his KK or AA and hoping that I am in the mood to roll the dice.



This is even more interesting to me now that I know it is an expert player that did this.


Seriously, I make a standard 4x raise to 60 and he goes all-in on me for 1k on the 2nd hand of the tourney??
I'm used to seeing the occasional donk do that in cheapo SNG's or something...but in a tourney like this you just don't see that everyday.

Possibly a strategy to try to build his stack as quickly as possible because of the payout structure (top 2 out of 180 get the cruise package).
