Message: [QUOTE="Matt Vaughan, post: 3150703, member: 34747"] We're 50 pages into this thread, so I wouldn't qualify that as a "meaningful post" but okay thanks for dropping in. Welp, unfortunately a spot came but I didn't win it... 2nd hand of the day, and an old guy open limps UTG+1. It folds around to me OTB, and I look down at 66. I looked at the old guy, and his demeanor just didn't scream strength at all. He had re-checked his hole cards a couple times, so I didn't think he had a PP that often, and overall he didn't seem that engaged. With only 2 people behind me, and a 62k stack (at 1.5k/3k/500a), I decided to shove all in to try to pick up the 12k that was in the middle, or take a flip for my stack. It folded to the old guy, who was very on the fence. He looked like he wanted to fold, but ended up talking himself into a call with AJo. Fine, except for once the A hit the flop. Turns out he was the only one at the table who didn't cover me, but I was left with just ~18k. I was dealt garbage and no spots for 2 orbits - the only spots I could have profitably open shoved, someone opened in front of me, and 3b-shoving wouldn't have any FE. Then OTB again it folded around to me with just 8.5k (a hair under 3bb), and looked down at another garbage hand... 93o. Unfortunately at this point I was so short I would have no future opportunity, so I shoved, and got a miraculous fold from the SB, but the BB called with the Q7o and the board ran out dry for both of us. Out after about 20 minutes, followed by a looooooong drive home. On the bright side I got a free soda at McDonald's and got to see the National Motorcycle Museum by accident! Hope everyone's weekend has been more profitable than mine. :) [/QUOTE]
