gradin123 0 Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 I was in one turbo $10.40 today and there was 6 players left with one player who had been sitting out since early. he had less chips than everyone.I was trying to fold every hand as fast as possible but a couple of times other players went into the tank deciding what to do. I was nearly screaming at my screen. "Play fast you idiots!"When the player sitting out was down to 400 I had about 1000 in the sb with kk. Auto FOLD! Link to post Share on other sites

jmbreslin 0 Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 These bloody things are driving me insane. As if we needed more evidence that people have no clue how to play them, I'm in a $5.20 last night and I come back to the table after having to sit out to deal with something to find that I'm down to about 900 chips at 50/100. There are a couple of limpers and I push with 66. One of the limpers, who has about 4000 chips, calls and flips over QTo. Of course he turned a Q and I was out. Idiot should have been folding to the money but instead he limps and then calls off 25% of his stack with QTo. IDIOT! Link to post Share on other sites
