@888poker@abarone68 Paired boards are dangerous. With 30BB I may very well have folded pre-flop, yes even on the BB. Ultimately you’re beaten by over pairs, 8x, A5s, 55 and Tx, ie a lot. You only beat bluffs and worse 5’s which wouldn’t have even played. Why risk your entire tournament life here??
@pokerheadrush ~5+ SPR on the flop needs a stronger hand than 99, no? Decreasing SPR on turn definitely means you need better hands. Is this not an obvious fold on turn or river?
@JonathanLittle I got blown up UTG calling a re raise with 99, c betting and getting called down only to be decimated by QQ on a board that looked great for me. Next time I’m folding those 9’s UTG especially if I’m deep stranded again. It really stung.
@thefactsdude Reminds me of when I saw EMTs doing compressions in my dad after the ambulance got to the hospital. The belly flail is indicative of death. My dad stayed dead and tragically I think that person does too.
