  1. This hand came when we were 16 handed. I was in 12th. I am playing to win. i had seen this guy heavily raise and reraise marginal hands like a10 a9 aj kj ect. I was just wondering is there any reasoning in folding this hand. I dont believe i can fold it but i want to hear peoples thoughts. Especially if anyone thinks i could lay it down. Please explain your reasoning. Ty

  2. Oh god, don't ever fold this. Ever. Not even once. Not just to see how it feels. Not even the tip. The only thing that should be considered here is whether to fist pump with your left or right hand.
  3. I don't mean to be an ass but the fact that you made it to the final 2 tables and are asking this question while I busted from every tourney early tonight makes me want to punch myself in the face

  4. I already know i should always call but i just wanted to see if anyone had any reasoning towards folding for a deep reason. I am always callin that agaisnt that kind in a 27$mtt.
