Atlantic Trout - Is Slacker weeeeeeaaaak?

[SlackerMcFly]

Had a LL with Jekyl (not that it matters).

Prodigy hadn't done anything goofy yet (that all comes later).

Hep me!

Call Jek or shove to isolate? Call Prodigy?

Input appreciated. Thx.

I would've called prodigy's reshove. There's so much money out there.

[redsoxsalty]

I'm sure I don't know what you're talking about [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I though you would surely call my push with so few chips behind you...

I guess you were unaware that I go pretty crazy in these games [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

EDIT: I didn't know you had a LL with jek FWIW...

since you did have it, I like just calling jek's push..but I would call mine as well.

[suited_ace]

Nah, I'd have done the same.

Yah, my thinking was:

Call - Prodigy folds or calls as well. Either way is fine with me.

Shove to isolate. (The correct play). But it was sooo early and nothing goofy had been happening.

Call the ProdiDonk shove - But I was getting just 2:1 odds with the small overlay for all my chippas this early with just TT = bad idea.

Fold and look to shovitz when blinds actually mean something.

1) jek was so low that there's no reason to put him for a premium hand here..not to mention that I typed "PVS!! hehe" in the chat box as he thought [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

2) regardless of the fact that I had not done anything weird yet...the simple fact that I lmped after you limped in MP, then pushed all in here, has got to give you a hint that I'm not doing something strategically sound anyway...I mean..either I make a bad play by limping behind with a premium hand here..or I make a bad play by pushing allin here with something other than a premium hand..

either way..my play sucks..and I would say that I would be much more likely to push here with some low PP here (which is likely since a limp/iso push may indicate...than limp behind initially with hands such that it would not give you a good enough odds to win the hand with TT (or at least have jek lose)

perhaps if my limp behind never happened..(maybe I acted after jek)..then I could certainly see a fold

just some more thoughts on it..

[cha59]

You already made reference to this: push after Jekyl pushes instead of calling. Your stack is too short to call for that many chips with TT.
