The Worst Strategy You've Overheard at a Table

[a4512969]

1200$ WPT satillite, down to HU. Buddy has 35xBB I have him covered. He raises button to 3.5BB, i think for a while and make a big over push with AQs and he insta calls, ok I must be F#$%##. He tables Q,8 and tells me he saw somewhere it was better than the average hand. He looses and comes 2nd for a replay at the 1200$ while I get the 10300 first place seat. He tells me soon after he was playing for 2nd anyways because he really enjoys playing the satillites. WOW
