Hero call thread
CrizzyConnor:
One I particularly like from a tournament a couple of weeks ago, i"m sure this was the $11 cubed I finished 23rd in.
I picked up that he bet pot when trying to buy the pot so was like 95% sure I was ahead and went with my read.

They are ok in $10 games i guess, but could these calls made in the WSOP mE. . .i v.v. much doubt it ! !
Can we pls change it to Bad call Thread ! !

Could they be made in the WSOP? Of course, what"s the difference? I"d only ever be playing the WSOP ME if I could afford to or won my way in so def wouldn"t be playing scared - if you"re not going to trust your reads and call off 15% of your stack to potentially increase it by a lot more then you shouldn"t be playing poker imo. Yes you"re going to get it wrong sometimes when someone just flat out plays a hand weird but you have to trust your reads sometimes and if you"re wrong so be it.
On the subject of the difference between an $11 game and one of a much higher buy in, am I the only one who doesn"t see/feel a difference between the value of such games? Like once you"re money"s in the pot you"re not seeing it again unless you win or cash so why play any different or scared in a big tourney?
If i"m at your table anytime soon though, best not to bluff me (just incase I am just a deluded station after all) :D

The difference ? ? ? ? they are BAD calls. . . .. and when the money is negligable, it doesn"t matter if you get them right or wrong ! ! ! !
Why not raise on the turn find out where you are in the hand ? ? By calling you never find out, you are not sure where you stand, and you don"t even try to find out???
hope you are on my table in Edinburgh. . . . i "ll make sure if u decide to call my bluff it"ll cost you dearly :-)
