how could you not push?

eh, I dont think not pushing is as bad as everyone is making it sound. Against some guy who cant speak english and 2 people who are already skeptical, I can see it happening where you push and they all fold. Its not like this promotion is well advertised (Id never heard of it till just now). Tho checking is pretty bad, you should have at least bet something, but you had a read so to speak and went with it. Dont sweat it.

Jesus christ you're an idiot.

This promotion kind of sucks because you have to stay in the hand, you could easily lose money going after it if someone pushes.

OP was being too nice to these guys lol.

I just had some tables open that I wasn't playing at, and I saw Mike start talking to this one table congratulating them. So I sat down ASAP in the only open seat. Sure enough, they were getting a $500 don't fold bonus.

Unlike the OP though I was going to raise a 9 on the river.

Good thing I read this thread yesterday.

You know what would have been really funny? You push, someone calls with 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] or 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].

It's still +EV to push against the risk they have that.

Do you see why?

[splashpot]

I didn't say it isn't. I just said it would be funny.
PS- "do you see why" is gay.

oh my god bet the [censored] river. Poker isn't about being nice. You just left about $500 on the table.
