Dodger Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 This is posted with the aim of establishing the right thing to do during the Virgin PL freeroll... You are sat behind the two blinds, who are both sitting out, for whatever reason. Everybody else has folded and there you are sitting on the horns of a dilemma (probably pretty painful at the best of times). Do you... Fold to allow preservation of the blinds. Limit your call to the big blind then check to a showdown with the BB. Raise, as would surely be the normal play, and take the blinds from the two sit-outs. Last night I felt decidedly unsure during the Virgin Freeroll and noticed one PLer who folded in this situation. They say all is fair in love and war, but no mention of a PL freeroll!

georgej Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Re: Protocol for PL games??? You're in it to win it. When you see me disconnected, just take the blinds. It's not going to cost me anything but free chips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
