I am always wondering what all goes through a "players" mind when they go all in.
Are they hoping to get a call and luck into all of some players' chips? Or are they hoping you will fold and they will pick up the 40 chips from the blinds when blinds are small? Are they too afraid to actually play the hand?
I find that most times you get more chips by playing the hand not going all in. Sure I guess you are trying to "protect" your 22. If you want to get my chips you have to use a little more skill, most times anyway. lol
By not going all in, you give yourself a chance to fold a hand that looks like it is beat. Folding a hand when the table goes the wrong way is not a sign of weakness. If the blinds are high and your chip stack is low, I can see the all in move being played. But every hand you play shouldn't really be an all in hand.
I will admit though to getting frustrated not playing at all when someone continuously goes all in, and falling for it to call. Only to be sucked out by very bad hole cards.
