    Notice you dont put your hand? this to me means you didnt have much either, also you dont put stack size i bet these cases are when its a case of any 2 because of the pot odds and size oftheir & your stack

    post some hands in the clinic then people can help you as i have done today. Lucky kept doing similar posts but admitted he has change his game slightly and beein reaping the rewards think you should do the same there is alot out there and its not all due to luck!

    How much was the All in - on what blinds - how much did the big stack have - and how have you played up to this point in the tourney - how far in are you?

    answers to the above will dictate if what he did was the correct move or not, complaining about the cards he called with isn't enough, if he called 3/4's of his stack off with 4 8 off then that is a very different situation to if he called equivalent of 3 bigs because you had let your stack get so low.  If i'm the big stack and you have raised a minimal stack into me (low percentage of my overall chips) then i'm happy to take a gamble that you will miss and i will hit, if you have an above average stack and it's going to cost me a significant amount of my stack then i'm not going to call with any 2.

    Poker as in life is situational, until you understand this very basic concept you can not hope to move onward and upward with your game. We all get beat, we all call when we shouldn't, we all suck out on others FACT - the difference is understanding why :) GL at the tables
