yeah this, basically. like i said, i would have just shoved probably too, but enty bet the % he bet because he thought it'd get called more, maybe that's wrong, maybe that's right

using 6 exclamation points in a row does not mean im being super serious, it means i'm bein' flippant, i'm plenty calm

and yo, i already explained why that logic is flawed. again, say there's $100 or whatever more behind. does anybody say "okay, i'm calling $32 but folding to $33?" i don't know, but at some point they make that distinction.

basically take any hand where you bet less than all-in with a huge hand on the river, and i'll act incredulous that you didn't bet $2 more because clearly he would have called the same % of the time for $2 more. that is pretty much the same thing you guys are doing to enty. actually if anything, the fact that $3 more is an all-in makes that $3 MORE psychologically powerful than if they have more behind. some recreational players play a cash game til they bust their stack. with $3 left they can still attempt to run it up so that might encourage them to call slightly more if they still have that left

i'm waiting for the why, though. just because you say it's so?

it might have been slightly not the best bet, just like it might have been slightly not the best bet if they'd had $100 more behind. but acting incredulous about it is just silly. he wasn't intentionally trying to short himself $3, he clearly thought that there was a psychological difference. if he knew the guy calls 100%, he goes all-in obviously
