Beat/Vent Thread

Maff, do you think you'd be able to fold there, given its the bubble?

I'm thinking I also would've shoved, given stack size, but wonder if fold was in your thinking?

the thought did cross my mind, but given I was SS by a fair distance, i dismissed the idea pretty quickly.

Never folding.

shove that every day of the week


(imho, prolly should have shoved earlier, when you had a little bit of fold equity)

Turbo tournament - tried a blind steal and got caught - thats what happened to my fold equity

Fair enough... I know I folded more hands yesterday on the bubble that I would've normally played/shoved (and that's probably why I'm a calling station).

As SS by a fair distance, I'd shove.

Yesterday, I was watching a short stack all in, and when the caller hit his ace, I shoved with my A5cc, only to see the SS hit runner runner straight. Luckily no-one called my shove

fair enough mate

when I took that beat, I was something like $60 up for the afternoon, finished ~$40 down, massive run of bubbles and just straight running bad (maybe 2 tilt hands?). Was like $70 down, so happy to pull it back somewhat.

Still means I've taken my $17 rack back from friday and run it into $350, was $450 at one stage

I even went down a level when I had that horrible run, PROPER BRM style, YAY ME!
