Default Chip Dumping?

Uninteresting fold. I deleted it. Can't take the abuse today.

I don't get it?

Edit: I assume you mean that he should call you since you only have 8 more chips? Why would he give you 100 more if he can't even beat a bluff? He can't raise, since he have no FE against someone who only has 8 more chips.
Do you think the fold would have made more sense if you had, say 5000 chips left after your river bet?

What is this a $3 tourney?

You bet 100 on the river I don't even see why someone would think this is chip dumping. I'm not sure to the reason for this post. After reading the introduction I thought he would bet the 100 and then fold to your raise to 108 but I was wrong.

yeah. i don't get the point of this thread.

go look in the limit forum. people make folds getting 8 (or whatever) to 1 all the time.

why would the fact that you only have 8 chips left afterwards make him more inclined to call?

[/ QUOTE ] it seemed a remarkable, almost unbelievable fold to me--maybe it's not so remarkable. This was a $30 tournament.

If you think a fold here is completely absurd and impossible and unbelievable, why did you bet the river?
