What the hell?
Just because you're playing low limits doesn't mean that you ignore math. The situation you're talking about sounds a little different, but I was reading a hand discussion the other day where they were on the bubble of a SNG, and when all the math had been run, it was pretty much commonly accepted that folding KK in that situation was the right play. SNGs are just about the most mechanical form of NL poker there is. It's taking a lot of practice for me to really figure out these situations, and I don't spend nearly as much time with SNGPT (SNG Power tools) as I should, trying to determine EV for pushing and calling in all kinds of situations.
The point is, yes, there is a lot that you miss but just making automatic moves with hands like that in critical situations.
sjay, I respect your posts, but I'm pretty surprised that you're so quick to just say, "It's low limit poker, it's simple."
