re: Poker & $2 NLHE MTT: Calling the river? Pretty early stage
Traps or whatever, often it is like this - especially on micro -, yesterday I just run into one, that was similar flop, from the button he just limped, called the blind, SB called, I was the BB with QQ so raised around 4-4,5 BB, button calls, SB folds.
Flop 277, i raise 50-55% pot, I get a call, turn 4, i raise again 50% (almost allin), river J, put in the 6-8 left BB, he calls, and shows AA.... what the heck??? rarely see it, and I think, especially from button it is a total mistake, but things like this happens.
Most of the cases it is similar like your example, some players, just can't fold anything, or they make huge risk to build huge stack in early phase of the tourneys, and for that purpose, it is not an unusual, it is familiar for me, no surprise at all.
