I was in a deep stacked $560 today seated early with Darryl Fish, the same tournament as explained in
this post. Please help me understand Fish's play here.
We were recently 6 handed and both seats adjacent to Fish were empty. Floor sends over 3 players. Both players that sit to Fish's right and left have just bought in with fresh 40k stacks. The player to his right looks 17 and nerdy; the player to his left is a young African American unknown.
Fish was in loose small-ball mode when I first arrived earlier, but over the past hour or so has tightened up quite a bit to a more abc style.
Blinds are 200/400-50. All players involved are eff 40k. Less than an orbit has been played since these new players sat.
9 handed, Fish is in hijack
Young kid opens to 1k
Fish flats
CO 3bets to 5k
Young kid calls 5k
Fish instajams 40k
Both call.
