    I must admit you were playing tighter than a ducks @ss! I wouldnt have called you but not everyone takes that much notice.

    but this isnt a strategy forum..the question is 'am i missing the logic of this call?',and if the answer is yes and can be explained to me ,then that can only improve my/anybody elses game...

    It's the old 'Poker Strategy' forum... so surely it is a strategy forum...


    You know it's just a bad beat. You got your money in good, why would you need the 'logic' of the call explained to you?

    This is why I hate pushing with small pairs in dym's as donkeys just call with any two, and it doesn't matter what two as its still a race.

    But it's them making the mistake... it's like 55 45 so you still don't lost out on rake, and obvs they wont always call so you can steal the blinds.

    true,but as i was 1st into pot im figuring that with evry1 else to make their play,im looking pretty strong..think its irrelevant wether or not theyr 3s,10s,Ks,As or even 32os/72os...had the call been with AK or QQ,or to some degree any other PP,i can wholly understand it...i also think that had they not been suited(his J6),he wouldnt have called..id sat there for sometime with no cards and no situations to make 'a play',figured this was as good as time as any..i dont really like to play small PP,let alone shove with them.phaps my question should have been,is calling with J6 in this position as bad as it seemed? bcoz 55/45 when you have lo stakk covered may be profitable in the short term,(lol,as it turned out 2 be).

    Yeah I guess in the long term that would make it a better move. Still when I'm short in these dym's (I presume its one) I like to just wait till I'm in sb and folded round then I'll just shove 72o upwards maybe bb if there are descent players who can fold a hand like KJ etc.

    yea i might fold in the hand pasted above because its UTG in a dym... just shove CO, BTN and SB... PP and 10BBs ish in any of these positions unopened and for me its an insta shove.
