I knew this would happen to you after you raised on the money bubble with the short stack all in

I never slow play queens with limpers before me, bubble or not - play2win

Haha
Not that you realised it was the money bubble at the time

I did I did, just couldnt take advantage of the situation

[David]

Me : That was the money bubble!
You : Oh, good point

Knew that but with hindsight (losing that hand) I could see how flatting could be justified, that's what I meant - not that I didn't know, lol.

For me, busting the $200 money bubble would have been more important than adding an extra 6k to your already 100k stack. if you only had 25k in front of you it would have been a different story.

It was clear that both myself and UTG+2 had flatted with pretty raggy hands. An all in blind, even if they have aces, is not likely to survive against four or five other hands.

But if one of you guys called, might've made 80k

No one is limp calling with a hand worse than yours.

You'd be surprised actually....some of the stuff I saw yesterday, I'm sure others have too.

There are times in a tourney when a little teamwork to bust a bubble is required , then back to the poker we go !
