Just purely annoying.
Hi Guys, I rarely post hands here, but I felt this one a cracker.
I called this on the cash bubble of a DYM expecting both others to back me up. 3 heads are better than one so to speak.
After the hand completed I asked why no other support. One guy typed in that he had 2 7 and didnt want the shortie to treble up!!!!
What to 60!
We all had over 3000 chips at this point. (apart from the micro)
It just seems to me that all to often people will call when they should be folding and then when an insta call is without doubt right, they will happily fold.

Even more annoying was when I came along in the SB in a similar situation and on the flop the guy on the button went all in. I had a pocketr pair and the flop was scarey so I got out the way, he turned on 8 3 may have been suited,and the short stack won. When I asked why he said he was trying to bluff me off the pot, so that I didnt bet later on.
Again I shook my head in disbelief, and told him that if he hadnt made the bet, the short stack would have lost (my pocket pair wouldve held up) and we'd all be in the money now. Justice was served tho as the guy actually ended up bubbling himself
However with play like this all I can do is put it down to inexperience and that these players are only playing there cards and not situations and just hope that one day they will learn
Aski
The guy did go out next hand. So no damage done.
Another gripe of mine is yes, betting the bubble when a shortie is all in with air. You can't earn another penny!
Happened too many times to worry about it anymore.
I actually started a thread some weeks ago about DYM bubble betting with air, some days later it happpened to me again.
The person that bet that time. None other than the 'silver fox' of sky poker!!!
