PF is gross.

The bluff is crappy too, for reasons stated better than i could by others. Check/fold.

Fold pre-tournament.

Rex,

Pf is awful it's a huge leak and is a giant spew. On the flop just fold don't bluff calling stations.

This is horrible because of your read as opposed to the opposite. The only time this is even possibly a reasonable play is if the button is a big winning player who would often be testing you with air here and could fold that air. Even then, it probably sucks.

Thanks for all the replys. I liked the arguments made - the whole don't bluff the fish and stick to the normal 2+2 game/style (which is how I play the 9 man's as I said earlier, but I digress) is definitely one reason that plays like this are not highly suggested.

Maybe I am a total luckbox and idiot, but villain thought for awhile and called with Q8, and he didnt improve. I guess -43% players don't even need K high to call?!?
