  2. Someone is arguing that you should have folded KK because you were on the bubble? Punch this person for me, plz...........
     
  3. Love Boat Capt: bye now

    assholes like this make 2 outer justice feel SOOOOO good its like secks

    i hate douches that do that
  4. Yes their argument is that I should have raise to somewhere around 5k-6k and fold if they came over top since they would only do that with AA KK or AK. I laughed and said I would still call and never fold this. He said thats why "you suck."

    If there is any other way to play this I would love to know.

  5. Yawn, I hate your friends.
  6. i think you should have reraised him 3-5 times his bet, and then act acordingly to his table image.
    he had a huge chiplead therefore he might have thought he was in position to slowplay, because he has no pressure with the blinds (M > 20), being able to discard if the board is scary. what do you think?
  7. ^^^you brought up same argument as the person i got into disagreement with. He said to raise him 3-5 times his bet also. If I do that and he re-raises I dont think Im going to fold. If he just calls and we see flop and no A hits Im still gonna put it all-in. I felt that a push would get rid of Ax-AQ since he is only left with 3k or so since i had a lot of chips too. AK and QQ might call too and I like my chances against those 2 hands. I thought it was obvious shove but maybe im wrong??

  8. maybe your play isnt bad, because in these specific situation its very likely that you win more then you lose, after all, he limps. But you have like second best stack, why risk everything with the only player that can flush your stack to the toilet?
  9. 4k and call shove, just a cooler unless you have some sick read that this donk min raises AA for a living,
     
  10. he didnt limp. Cutoff limped then he min raised on button.

    Hes also the only player i can double off of with premium hand. Plus like i said I really liked KK if I got a call from QQ as i would have been top 3 in chips.

    Only one hand has be dominated so I think that it is bad excuse to fold because you have big stack.

  11. 4k and shove seems all right to me, at least you would put him out if he had a marginal hand.
  12. Wouldnt he fold marginal hand for 16k more too...

  13. I think you're scaring away a lot of hands. Raise to 4-5k and watch 55 push over.
  14. if you raise to 5 or 6k and he shoves, and you put him on the range KK, AA or AK, then its still an easy call. You get dealt AK MUCH more than AA.

  15. So sounds like the best play would be to raise to 4-5k since that would get possible call or shove from weaker hand, and call his all-in raise everytime. Sounds good to me. thanks
