I don't think it was retarded for him to fold, especially since he was behind. I should have been more specific. I think it was retarded for him to jam half his stack into the pot without the intent to shove the rest in regardless of the turn. If he continually plays that way, he'll definetely go bust with the quickness. If you play to try to make somebody else fold you'll end up being a losing player.
In the words of Doyle Brunson, "there's no sense putting in good money after bad" and I firmly believe that. The hand as a whole was played badly. |
