folding this hand is suicide

[/ QUOTE ]

Sigh, another case in which I cant tell if the poster is joking or is clueless when he says "folding this hand is suicide."

I can't tell if this is 2nd level humor or if he's clueless himself. What are some good indicators? I guess one can tell by the amount of posts he's made in the past. I feel that may indicate whehter or not he is an experienced poster/player. However, this small number may belie the poster's actual ability.

Anyway... what do you mean by suicide? If by suicide you mean a 70 dollar suicide, then yes, its a suicide.

Wow - thanks for posting this. Was playing live this past weekend and noticed myself that I was losing some bigger pots in these types of situations.

My first response was call turn and see what happens, but then I decided to think about it some more. The truth is that ignoring implied odds, the equity just isn't good in this situation even if the donk calls a high % of the time.

Assumed bluff/NFD (no 9) - 10%, Q9 - 30%, 9 with FD - 40%, naked 9 (20%) and came out with neg. equity even with donk calling 80%.

Big help. Thanks.

Interesting hand though, Bobby I think you're very wrong here, and not to be results oriented but against any player with a clue you're usually being freerolled here or up against the nut straight.

ive been wrong alot, so me being wrong here wouldnt be the first

but really just type out some math.. find out how often he NEEDS the nuts or freeroll ot make folding this correct, and I imagine the results will surprise you.

Hi Dominic,

I'm still trying to figure out how the hero bought in for $600, didn't play a hand for 15 hands, then completed in the SB with T9 and $1200 behind.

Didn't know you could buy-in for more than max, eve if you're multi-tabling.

Plus, now you've got me really confused: I thought you said you were NOT the hero in this story, but the villain???

Wasn't doubting your story, just thought it was funny.

He was 'villain'. 'Hero' had been playing at a different table with a 1200 stack and had recently moved (with his full stack) to this table. This should not be THAT hard to understand...

Like I said, I had no idea you could move from one table to another (online) with your full stack when there is a max buy-in. THAT'S what I don't understand.
