what's your call

Last nights NPL game, 2nd session blinds 20/400 a full table some erratic players on the table.


Cholea solid player UTG
Paul almost playes every hand
Danny an online player who has started playing live.
Brownie known to bluff a bit
Tai what go's on in his head no one knows
Wallaby depends on his frame of mind which way he plays.
Mega Tilt SB (away from the table)
Me BB

Chole and Paul call, Danny plays with his chips for a while trying to make a decision how to play his hand, he places 3000 out followed by the remainder of his his chips, as this was a string bet with no announcement of all in prior to placing his 3000 his 2nd stack 1400 is withdrawn from the pot.

Brownie, Tai and Wallaby all fold, Mega's already folded being away from the table.

I look down at pocket 7's, a call would cost me 2/3rds of my stack.

Placed in a similar situation would you play or fold.

Fold, chances are that he either has an over pair or 2 much higher overs. Not likely that he would have an under pair. If you really felt like gambling, or just tired and wanted to leave then by all means re raise all in and try to push the other 2 out.

Plus two more to act after so may get action from them, which gives you even less of a chance

I think if he's playing with his chips and really putting thought into the bet amount, he probably has you dominated. If it were me, I'd call just to see if I was right. : P

If you are tired and want to leave then STAND UP AND LEAVE.

Haha.

I'm not agreeing, I'm saying, you know that no matter HOW many times we say that, it doesn't happen.


So YOU get off the grass.

Quiet old man! :)

I'm merely pointing out that if you don't say something they'll just keep doing it regardless as well as maybe thinking it's ok to do it.


Not saying something is just as bad as doing it yourself.


Like when someone sees Nisbet cheating, yet doesn't mention it :P

I don't like it when it happens.

Mind you, I think it's a bit of a misnomer. No one really "wants" to go.. more like "Well I don't care if I go, but if I'm still in, I'm happy about that too".

Still not nice :)
