Hello fellow 2+2ers,
This will be my first post on the forum and I want some your in depth opinions or critics about this hand
I have been playing online poker 3 years mainly turbo games and I am not a winning player, however, I would like to enhance my game because I love the game.
-$5.50 NLHE [Turbo], $3K Gtd / 694 entarant / $700 for 1ST
Position32 of 72, Blinds$600 / $1,200/ $150
The situation: I played in this table for less than 2orbits
seat 1: 15BB ,SB
seat 2: 22BB ,BB (HERO)
seat 3: 38BB
seat 4: 28BB
seat 5: 14BB
seat 6: 24BB
seat 7: 27BB
seat 8: 7.7BB
seat 9: 44BB ,Buttion (Villan)
72 remaining with the average stack of 13BB so I would say I have the pretty good stack.
The actions fold to the button who instant shoves for 44BB (he was 8th in the chip count position).
my hand: 8s8h
Board : 3h5h9h 7c 6c
Villan hand: 8d,10d
I think about a bit and decided to call given the fact that he had the most chips at my table and most importantly, as soon as I saw brazil under his screen... I managed to click the button.
Am I being the victim of ICM disaster? or perhaps variance?
I would really appreciate your comments or thoughts on this situation!
Please feel free to post your comments from the variety perspective.
