because there was 2 other players in the hand before he pushed. Maybe if he slowed down a little with the nuts we might have got to chop one of their stacks.

after typing that I believe I read the sarcasm in your response. :oops:

I was wondering why you called him a donk when you played the same hand. Then I figured it out. I am sure he pushed out of fear of being drawn out on (higher straight). With one card to go you never know what donkey is willing to risk his tournament life with a draw.

Or he figured the overbet might get action.

All in all nice hand by you too with the slow play.

Plus, I didn't choose to play the hand, saw it for free from the BB. 8-)

Pushing out of fear of a bigger draw instead of playing the hand to max out value is for sure MUB(Monster Under the Bed) play.

Once he pushed I might as well have thrown in my extra 70. Didn't think that would make much of a difference on getting a call from the other 2 players.
