Re: pocket 4s in a turbo
No he doesnt have less than 10BB's, he's got 18 big blinds left and raises to 3.6....He's leaving plenty of room for a fold. If the raise WERE 1/3 of his stack you could count on an all-in indeed I agree. As posted here he will fold his marginal hands I think. Read marginal as: A2-A6 off, QJ, KT, K9s etc. Goldmund

How is he begging for action w a raise of 3.6X the Big Blind?

He has less than 10 BB's and is not necessarily trying to fend off action against his hand. His raise will commit him to basically any flop, so in essence I think he's committing his stack here. I don't know what limits OP plays, but from my experience in low limits, I have usually found this to mean a monster. Now I am not saying there are clearly defined rules in poker, especially heads-up, but based on the conditions of the game at that point, as well as my own experience in lower limits, this is my best guess. I am only giving my opinion, and by no means do I claim to be an expert.
