second hand, I likely fold, but I am prob too tight. I just don't enjoy calling my stack off on bubble... Also, I wouldn't let him shove bvb 10 times in a row ;) Really this one is one for the HR calculator.
First hand now seems quite clear, shove turn (I like how you put it, make him make a big mistake), as played call.
Makes sense, it's much easier to analyze now with an unlimited time bank, where in game decisions are much more difficult, especially if there are also other tables beeping away requiring attention.
The second hand seems much easier to analyze as it can be a basic decision.
My problem is, if I fold here, what are the chances the bb calls it off, not entirely likely without something, he's also one of the biggest winners in these games so I don't expect him to make a ton of mistakes.
Now if I fold, and the bb happens to dbl through, now im the shortest by a fair margin and what is the likelihood I'll get a hand this strong to GII with very soon as stacks are shallow and blinds are likely to increase soon. They are both thinking players, if I start shipping any 2, they are more then capable to adjust and make correct calls with what may seem like weaker hands, but are ahead of my range.
Results:
1st hand, I used up my time bank and did end up folding. The worst part about this is when you bust shortly after, and wonder about this hand, and what could have been, and how I should have just called anyway.
2nd hand, I called, obv knowing any A is almost always going to be the best, especially when in these turbos, a lot of it is shipping it in knowing the majority of the time your opponent won't have a strong enough hand to call with.
I constantly see ppl shoving close to 90% of hands, knowing their opponents will only call x% of the time
I called and was ahead in this particular case.
