All in preflop - what is this??

[abenz419]

well since this is still going on for this long, I figured I'd point out something that I haven't seen in the other reply's that I've read, he only had to call 1498 of his 8892 chip stack, which could have something to do with what seems like kinda a lose call... also if you were shoving preflop with a wide range of cards than you can't be suprised when someone doesn't put you on an actual hand and makes a loose call. Really though your biggest problem is that you pushed preflop in the first place, yes I know in a tournament setting there are certain circumstances that make it more of a necessity, but all shoving preflop does is require you to get lucky and hit, or get lucky your opponent doesn't hit, either way it's just luck. If you had just made a standard raise preflop you wouldn't have pot commited yourself before you had even seen a card and consequently would have the option to fold the losing hand without going bankrupt.

Nothing special, you had slightly more pre proceny opportunities. But it is known from the flop, and you can win the AK 35. You can piss off but you have to get used to ... GL
