Message: [QUOTE="finaltable1, post: 6344162, member: 187503"] MTT limit under $16.5 at the PokerStars = (LAL)Latin American Lottery. Participation ticket = any Ace. Got ace - push all-in. Not sure if it's favela style or if there is cocaine involved, or maybe such poker is advertised at spanish-portuguese speaking poker sites, but that's what I see quite often. I was laughing hard recently when I saw 4 players went all-in preflop in $5.5 bounty game, all from LA countries, and the biggest stack from Argentina with the worst and stupidest ace - A7 won against AK-AJ hands. By the way all stacks above 30BB, and it all started after 2bb straddle. SO how smart is this - there is a 2bb raise in front of you, together with antes, BB+SB, in total it's let's say 5bb pot, and you're in UTG2 or EP with 30+bb stack, and let's say AQos. And what's your move? Instant Brazilian all-in is what I see way too often. Hot and risky poker. [/QUOTE]
