Platinum Level
As I have said in other threads I am new to playing HU.
I am not the type of player that goes all in early in a tourney, but this hand has made me question that.
How do ppl call a 3 bet with rubbish so early in a tourney, I see it happening alot lately, do you think a shove would have made a difference in this situation.
