$27 SNGs - stupid limp-callers (worst ever?)
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t400 (2 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)
Hero (t3875) Button (t9625) Preflop: Hero is BB with 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. Button calls t200, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t3850</font>, Button calls t3450. Flop: (t7525) J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Turn: (t7525) 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> River: (t7525) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Final Pot: t7525 Results below Hero has 8h 5s (high card, king). Button has 4d 5d (one pair, fours). Outcome: Button wins t7525 Bleh. I was fairly confident he had trash again. He decides to make a stand with 54... cuz it's s0000ted! At least I had my money in with the best hand, and with 8-high there's not much more I can ask.

Re: $27 SNGs - stupid limp-callers
Are you serious? I had tremendous fold equity here versus most players and about 9 BBs. I need to pick up a lot of these pots when he shows weakness like he does here.

Re: $27 SNGs - stupid limp-callers
Nope.
I'm not saying I made the best play in the world either. But which play is substantially worse: Sometimes pushing all-in with any two cards after your opponent shows weakness, while short-stacked. Sometimes calling an all-in with 5-high after your opponent shows strength, with a 2:1 chip advantage. The point of this post was not that I made some great play. The point of this post was this was the worst limp-call I've ever seen. I've never seen someone do this with 5-high before.

Re: $27 SNGs - stupid limp-callers (worst ever?)
Yeah I agree with you, he shouldn't call with 45. I prefer to check since you still have a decent amount of blinds heads up but yeah if you're going to raise then it has to be all in. Beware though of this play, people do limp strong hands heads up in sng's for precisely this reason. His justification that he knew you had trash too is the biggest load of rubbish ever, he still can't call.
