early in a tournament, UTG limps I raise to 5BB with red nines.
UTG call the 150 ... and only has 40 behind
Flop 9 high, all clubs.
Discuss.
(Yes, I know all the chips are going to get in at some point.)
why not start checking? cheap showdown? the most it could cost is 40.
I'd answer but the clown is scaring me
ginger got old
Wrong forum?
Why does it matter?
It's 40. It doesn't matter if you win it or not. I'd get it in to try and put villian out.
40 chips is 40 chips...better in your stack than his....but let him put them in voluntarily, which he'll do if he has a club. I have seen players fight on with less, so a fold is not completely out of the question on his part although very unlikely, I admit.Quote:

That's what I did. I'm just practicing trying to think like you.Quote:
