    why is he playing 22 at big stakes

    not many people fold pocket pairs pre when there has only been the one raise if you fold 2s 3s 4s etc pre flop to just the one raise thats up to you but 9 times out of 10 everyone is going to play 2s for another 7.50 with only one other opponent in the hand.... also 2s are probably the most disregarded hand in poker so if you do hit a set you are 9 times out of 10 getting paid always. Thats why he played the 2s and why everyone will play 2s when there has been no re raise set mining may not always be profitable but when you do hit it with hands like 2s 3s and even 4s you are going to get paid simple as that.

    I hardly ever fold pocket pairs pre-flop, especially in cash games.

    The stakes makes no difference. generally there are good implied odds to calling with any pocket pair to try to "set mine" preflop, if its cheap enough.

    Weather it's 4nl or 1000nl makes no difference!!!

    Dohhhhhhh got his money in as a big favourite and got ul, give the guy a break please!

    So basically you're completely ignoring what Greg has written even though it's 100% correct ?

    heres a perfect example to back up my post of how disregarded pocket 2s are this was in the 4k gtd on tues. or weds. so not a tiny tournament, this is not a brag of any kind just showing what happens when u do hit big with 2s to a standard 3x PF raise

    Dohhhhh frankly out played me in the hand you are talking about and I got lucky.  There is an argument for folding 22 OOP on some tables, but not that one.

    Stakes are irrelevant,

    Good question.  If I was playing against me there I'm mostly calling preflop with some raises mixed in but when I'm raising I'm playing two napkins (disregarding my hand) rather than a pair of twos.  Post flop I mostly play completely differently if I hit the set.  If I miss I'm not always folding (will be mostly folding) but I'm back to playing two napkins again then.  Now we're looking at flop texture, villain ranges, my own image etc.  A fraction of the time I'm calling to reassess, with some bluff leads/check raises for good measure.  Playing OOP really sucks though so mostly folding when I miss.

    Fwiw, I thought the "big mouth" in question played the hand fantastically. Set mining in cash is always a huge value play due to the implied odds when hitting a hidden set. And I thought the overbet was genius because of how predictable the bet sizes generally seem to be at that level. He also used his image excellently to induce Tommy's jam. 'Ol big mouth just got very unlucky but proved he can mix it at those levels IMO.

    Fair play to Tommy for admitting he got outplayed. I agree.

    And fair play to OP for admitting he got in wrong too.

    Great TV hand though. TK must be gutted at losing his stake.....

    Yes, you are a big man seppe.  If only because you have clearly had far more to drink than DOHHHHHHH, which I believe to be a rarity in itself.
