Situations?
thestinger:
Not that long ago I had ah :as: all in against :3s: 7s and was gubbed by 4s 5s qh, 6s, kd. After that I decided that not everbody folds because a player has played/indicated a big hand (and if that were always true it wouldnt be much of a game). IMHO sometimes that big bit of luck that is in the game is sometimes just worth a punt! It just comes round to the "when am I gonna shove!" and man up/take the chance to win.
TBH Charlie Sheen should be the spokesperson for "POKER".

Absolutely agree with the "when am i gonna shove"......anywhere near 5 BB"s with antes just about any 2 cards are worth the value (hope they"re live, please let them be live :D ), but I"m mainly looking at cash and tournament situations where I may be able to learn from mistakes. Think we"ve all had the good fortune of doubling up with a crazy short stack shove and ran into QQ/AK or similar in the blinds, but those situations are generally unavoidable and play themselves out........and yeah Charlie"s the man for that particular "job" ;)
Santino67:
OK gang another spot for your consideration, TBH I"d usually raise or fold pre with this kind of hand, but the SB has been raising pre + post flop, not necessarily with premium starting hands and BB Voodafe hasn"t long joined the table and hasn"t shown many cards. So what should the Fat Charlie boy do here.............
