villain 2: he was there the day before, doubled up with a bottom two pair from the small blind and wanted to color up all his €2 chips into €100 chips, and asking if he could take money off the table and if not if he could leave the table then come back with a smaller ammount Rolling Eyes

All in, and all in some more.

Surely you aren't thinking of folding?

since villian#2's push puts you allin this is an easy call... if someone shows KK or 66 then that's just how it does... 34 for the straight is a POSSIBILITY although a small one, but still even IF they have one you have the redraw...

push...
push...
push...

this is a situation you pray to get into...

You cannot fold.

Make the call.

If both these guys are donks as you describe then I wouldn't hesitate to push. One has two pair and the other limped with AK is my guess as to their hands.

well i thought for like 1-2 sec. and called...



villain 2 shows 4-3s


i was looking disapointed when a Q hit the river and i didnt fill up, then i saw villain 1's hand who apparently also called; 6-6... nice second hand cooler

You still made the right play. Folding would have been outrageous. You had a redraw against the straight, and you're pretty much supposed to go broke with set under set.

The only way not to go broke on an under set is to put your opponents on the over set. A rare happening for sure but it has been done before...but not by me... Wink
