How could someone fold this

(1/3) > >>

LongshanksED:
20man Sit n Go 5 euro buy in

top 4 get cashed

bubble time again

one guy has somehow survived 3 orbits as short stack (he"s all in each time and he has had AJ, K10  and QQ to survive) and not playing at the table - sitting out

he"s on the BB with 600 chips and BB is 800 SB 400

folded round to the SB with 5000 chips

SB takes a second and chat box folk start asking "what you waiting on?" and "call"

SB replies - i only have 2 3 off suit and promptly folds citing that he has doubled him up the last 2 orbits - now 1 or 2 guys where a bit nervous and wanted to see the guy not present to be eliminated ( i was one with only 3000 stack and was in BB in 2 hands time)


would you have called for 200 more and elimination was impossible for you?

i know i would

lukybugur:
Call 200 to win 1200 when you have 5k behind, it"s an auto-call.

Swinebag:
no neccessarily an auto call!!!

If you are a big chip daddy, you want to keep the short stack in, so you can keep bullying the medium stacks.

Otherwise for 200, it is of course an auto call

I"m never folding (T2o, 72o or whatever) when I"m getting 5:1 on a call for 1/25th of my stack.

noble1:
Swinebag22 has it spot on , even if the sb did have 32o and was to much of a ***** to put 200 in it was correct to keep the short stack in so that he the big stack can steal from all the frightened passive weak players trying to cash and build a mountain of chips,only inexperienced players would try to KO the super short stack in this SITUATION...............
