So, about that theory...
I found a table with two donks sitting with about half a buy in each and got myself on the waiting list. One of them left, and I sat down. Here was the SECOND (and final) hand that I got to play...
You see, the only problem with the theory is that when these dorks double up, a lot of times they are going to hit and run. If they would stay for a while, great, I think playing them would be a no brainer, but when they hit and run like this, well, shit happens.
I'd be happy to hear input on this hand too, btw. I guess the math wasn't QUITE there for me to call (especially if you discount some of my outs), but I thought it was close enough at the time.
