Deliberately making bad calls in coolers


slapdash

Recommended Posts

Just some vague thoughts I've been having ... As anybody who's played coolers (double or nothings) knows, there are frequently situations in the later stages of coolers where one player goes all-in and it's almost never right to call him ... but if he knew you were likely to call, then it would be wrong for him to go all-in. For simplicity, consider the following specific situation: On the bubble, roughly equal stacks, high blinds. You're BB and a sensible regular, whom you expect to play against a lot in the future, is SB. It's folded to him. If he shoves, what if you call quite light and let him know that you intend to do this in future (e.g., you say in chat "have to call to stop you stealing")?
