  2. I don't understand your reasoning for making this move. I think it works often but I just don't get it.
  3. You have about 10m in a spot against an unknown, I'd really rather fold here. If I'm going to play this, I almost rather be shoving a 87s type of hand, since your K10 has a very good chance of getting dominated (and really, if he has JJ/QQ, your not happy with either hand).

    In this spot, I would rather fold, but make a mental note. If it comes around next orbit, and the exact same spot happens, I might be popping him with nothing.
  4. foldilocks, also what is going on with evryones tourn buy-in in their stars HH

    Its impossible to know w/out somewhat of a range, but shoving isn't terribad or anything.

  6. Are we now shoving ~30 BB is that the new trend ?? I just don't understand
  7. Why the hell would you shove here?
     
  8. $19,384,670.16+$23,565,010.80+$0.80 USD

    Since we are playing for $42,949,681.76 I think I'm folding here since he can be raising light for a $42M buy-in....

    On the serious side, fold. You have no idea of ranges against an unknown.
