That's what it showed on my screen. If I believe FTP's systems to be working correctly (which I do) and if I also believe that my workstation has not become infected with a trojan horse that enables manipulation of my FTP client (which I also do) and if I also believe that I did not ingest hallucinogenics before the tournament began (again, which I do), then yes this is seriously the action which occurred.

You limp utg with no plan whatsoever if anyone in position raises with stacks this deep? Why the hell do you feel the need to post this decision and then give people advice in extremely technical situations in tournaments as if you know everything?

Call the raise and [censored] play poker.

Mr. "Gus Hansen? Easy. Open book." telling other people not to act like they know everything.

The implied odds aren't really there for a call for set value. Yes 9:1 is there, but it's more like 20:1 for the allin to actually happen. Other reasons to call, to be sure, but this hand is not as straightforward as you apparently think it is.

You have 15:1 implied odds, not 9:1.

Obviously I limped to get the best implied odds possible.

Next time you're in the shower you might want to check your body for scales and fins.
