What is going on?

   I have been playing on this site for a little while and have played against some good players and some total muppets. I play mainly in DYM sit and goes and have seen a lot of crazy things. All in bluffs on the river called by bottom pair, big all in raises called by 2 4. But what i saw earlier today i just could not believe. The situation was we were down to 4 players with 1 really short stack and the blinds were 75 and 150. UTG the short stack goes all in for 210 and is instacalled by the big stack, the SB folds and i call from the BB. The flop comes down 10 10 2, i check and the big stack bets out 400 to which i fold.   The hands then get turned over , shorty had 33 and the big stack shows K9. Fortunately he spiked a 9 on the turn to end it all.

   Is it just me or is that bluff on the flop so incredibly stupid that it beggars belief. Hopefully i am not the only one who can not understand why he would bluff into a dry side pot on the bubble.

    Had a similar scenario on the bubble in a DYM last night. short stack had less than a bb, and both sb and myself in bb called. Then sb bet out of the flop, so I had to pass 10 5.

    SB turns over nothing after the river, so short stack's 33 takes it. Board ended up being 10 high, so it would have been over. Still cashed, but I had a polite word in the chat box - nonsensical bet

    I started an intersting thread in poker strategy recently on this very subject. Well worth a read.

    True, sorry mate, I do struggle to get my point across in one line.

    Typical woman, why use 1 word when 438 will do!
