PokerStars Invitational 2 Last Night
And the guy that is always saying this stuff are reruns....I DON'T CARE if it was or not lol it's not the point......
This one had Kathy Libert, Mimi Tran, Scotty Nyguen and some other guy in the final 4.....
Anyway...I did NOT understand Mimi Trans playing at all.
She was tied w/ the chip lead at one point w/ Kathy, they both had like 1,020,000 in chips and Scotty and the other guy had like 500k and 400k or so.
Mimi kept pushing all-in preflop regardless of her position and regardless of her hands. I mean w/ shitty unsuited cards, shitty suited cards, just all-in, all-in........and yes, most of the times everyone folded, one time Kathy made a HUGE laydown w/ ajsuited, but still....WHY pick this style when you are the chip leader or tied for the chip lead??? At least be more selective w/ your cards??
I know that a lot of times they say this may be a good route for amateurs to take against pros because pros won't want to call all of their chips w/ mediocre cards in a situation like that and also this way the pro can't outplay the amateur on the flop, because all the chips are already in the middle.....soooo back to my main point.....Why was Mimi Tran doing that???
I just didn't get it.......(of course, Liebert eventually called Trans all-in when Libert had jacks and Mimi had 2 shit cards...she ALMOST hit a straight, but Libert ended up taking all of Mimi's stack except maybe like 500 chips....)
