Message: [QUOTE="JohnBoyWWFC, post: 1685932, member: 64488"] Fair play. I would rarely do it, but I reckon I was right on this occasion. Another example I saw on TV was 2 guys were heads up in the final of a World Open, it was Sam Trickett and Yevgeniy Timoshenko and Timoshenko got check raised all in on the river with Top pair and a weak kicker. Now, in this spot, he's clearly beat, Trickett knows he can't push him off anything because he's pot committed, but why call for all your chips because the odds say you should when you're clearly behind. It was a terrible bet on the river anyway, but I don't see why he calls almost saying, fine you got me, well played. It's almost like he "can't fold" and this seems to be a common saying in poker, I had to call, I couldn't fold there, even when people are sure they are beat. Just some thoughts. [/QUOTE]
