it was a spin and go and not a sit and go. what a call!

I know, its very low buyin, but even so this is pretty insane. The min-raise on turn after checking back flop is kind of goofy, but at least it can be justified as a bluff. But when he then face a 3-bet jam, surely its time to let it go??? Maybe he thought, you were bluffing, but he dont even beat most of your bluffs.

Nice hand and good result 👏
With 16bb effective in a spin & go, I actually like the aggressive line on the turn. Once you improve to a full house, there’s no reason to slow play here, especially against a range that includes trips and weaker made hands.


The check-check flop makes sense, and when the SB raises the turn, jamming is probably the best option given stack sizes. You deny equity and get paid by hands that won’t fold anyway at this level.


Well played overall — sometimes “not so boss” lines still get boss-level results 😄

I thought if i go 3/4 on turn it looks very bluffy after checking the flop and it worked lol. But i i thought he has at least least k high or a low pair after the call. But yeah very low buy-in and crazy stuff happening in those but first time i saw something like that in a long time.

It is called unsuccessfully bluffanul)))
