Default Re: Professional No-Limit Hold \'Em Questions

A discussion is going on in the micro forum on this book. Have a look and Im sure your questions have/are being discussed.

As far as folding after you put in 1/3 of your stack, thats discussed on page 143. Its pointed out that if you and another player each put in 1/3 of your stack, the pot will be at least as big as the remaining money. Any future bet will offer you at least 2:1 meaning you would have to have less than a 33% chance of winning to justify folding. If thats the case, you probably made an error earlier in the hand.

If you regularly put in 1/3 of your stack with less than a 33% chance of winning, you will probably be on a few buddy lists. [img]/images/graemlins/ooo.gif[/img]
