The "All in" Debate

[Tsnow]

So I was just in another tourney where some one tried the All in every hand approach.

It seams that there is a lot of controversy over this being an acceptable style of play.

I try it whenever I get good hands
Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't ... Won 2 tourneys in a day and got eliminated early in the last one I played... Just a matter of luck

I prefer games that emulate money involved conditions.

Though some real players do have a very aggressive style, I doubt those doing that here would do if they had put a substantial amount to buy in a tourney.

I find this ultimately boring. Just my opinion, of course.

Its a tactic that can both work and play dividends or kick you right in the Ass...I've called a few and won most as I don't call with a crap hand...Its all about percentages and any pair usually wins?...I'm with Stern tho...It isn't real poker...its table agression and intimidation...theres no skill involved...a lot of luck and a reliance on a lot of folding...Saw two great players go out earlier today with Aces high...to two pair...KKs
77s...I had the nuts and didn't realise...folded pre river...Its just your Donald Duck!...

Play your own way...I've gotten a gold playing real poker...None of this All In crap!...Be cool...For money or on TV...these guys would be toast!...Sox

Its the loosers tactic. Maybe you ll win one time but you ll loose all the others.
