mrpaddyx 13 Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Totally random observation from last Sunday's Sunday MillionI happening to be watching the table that had the shortest stack. He had 411 chips (or there abouts). THe blind were in the thousands and the ante was 300. The tournament had went in to hand to hand play and bubble boy was 1st to act under the gun. If he folds he gets chipped down to 111 chips and will be all in automatically the next hand but will cash. If he calls he will have thw whole table to beat and will have at least one caller. He calls with A9 and runs into AA and gets knocked out exactly on the bubble. If he had folded he would have cashed. Seemed such a dumb ass move to make and and a good way to throw away $300.

HighwayStar 8 Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 There are very few spots in MTTs where folding2cash is advised. There are some but the bubble of the Sunday Million isn't one of them. If the $300 is an issue to you, then you shouldn't be playing the tournament in the first place.edit- looking at that spot its a bit weird, maybe it is correct to fold, it's probably close. You really shouldn't let yourself get that low in the first place (unless he had just lost a huge pot) Link to post Share on other sites

GWCGWC 83 Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 I must be reading this wrong. The player with just over one ante on the true bubble in a large field should fold most hands in this spot. no? Link to post Share on other sites
