Because it's ultra turbo... better shoving with ace high, than blinding out.

blinds are 100/200, and you have a stack of 2K?

that means you have an M of 6 - thats almost certainly push or fold territory

The Micheal Goodchild theory: You Fold KK preflop when short stacked because someone with Ace rag can call you and hit an Ace.

That's completely retarded.
Pardon me, but I think you'll find that's a shovel. See you next Tuesday!

Last time i played against michael goodchild.

Michael: <insert ultra long rant here about equity and odds and suited cards and carp that was completely wrong>

Macca: Michael (interupts him mid sentence), not sure if you realise this, but nobody gives a shit

Michael: well go FCK yourself then

Michael - silent for the next hour.

Macca - mission accomplished

Michael: i fold, i only have 2 outs

Michael: an open ended straight draw
benny the cunt: what? that means you had 8
Michael: nah, i could hit it on the turn or the river, that makes 2

benny the cunt: something about a hand like quads or somesuch
Michael: i was playing at the casino the other day blahdy blahdy blah
Michael: "and they play for real money there"
