Re: What is this guy thinking? What are your notes on the others in the hand? Specifically M1RJD. Has he shown weakness to a reraise before this hand? DmMan's obviously got him tagged as weak and easily bullied. It's more than likely pete9 hasn't got a big big hand to just call the pfr, and DmMan thinks a squeeze will take the pot there and then. (or he's just a big lucky donkfish :))

Re: What is this guy thinking? yeah looks like a bit of a squeeze play to me as well:ok maybe mir was playing a bit loose before this and dm man thought he might be too weak to call or have a big enough calling range for his hand to play okay against (small pps and any ace apart from ak /a10) or maybe dm mans been ultra tight and thinks he's gonna get a lot of respect :unsure i wouldnt be trying it in this situation for a couple of reasons. firstly because of stack sizes his only real bet here is all in so your having to overbet the pot really, so the value of the squeeze lessens. i dont like putting myself all in without good reason at the mid stage of a tourney,no need to get involved here so i wouldnt. doesnt mean to say this guy hasnt tried it here,maybe he had been ultra tight and thought it would get thru ,or maybe as hornet says he probably read it somewhere and thought it was a good idea:\.
