Well I didn't say rolls but something friendly could be fun.
Why is he really good?
Well they call him the player's champion so you should assume he is.

ok what about mtt challenge with friendly side bet best roi after like 1k mtts? Just so we can get enough in we could do like $20 180-mans or something? Might take a bit of time but less would just be who has the biggest luckbox and that's never fun...

Ahh, another awesome post by you. Don't you have anything better to do?
I decline, no time for a challenges right now. However, if you are serious hit me up in about two months when things slow down and I have more time.
care to elaborate?

It's all been said already. Basically I've come to realize this about this site...no matter how much proof someone has or how well they try to explain something people for the most part just won't listen.
I guess it's human nature...everyone thinks they are right. They assume they are good poker players and playing the "right" way because they are winning. I'm not arguing the fact that some of you guys may actually make a little money playing micro tourneys. But what I'm trying to say is that beating $2 tourneys doesn't take much skill at all, so if your using your ROI in these tourneys as "proof" that what your doing is correct then something is wrong. This hand is a perfect example...it really isn't a doubt at what the best play is...there should be no arguing that.
In closing, loldonkamentplayers...That is all.

[ ] Proof in this thread that calling off most of stack over 2 all-ins with ak off, and several players left to act is the right play.

OMG!!! Are tourney players this dillusional!!! It's so blatantly obvious that it really shouldn't need explaining but here it goes:
1. $2 rebuy tourney
2. I has AK
3. Get monies in middle
4. rub winnings on titties
Simple really

Look at all the random shit the guys in this hand showed up with...that in itself is proof that shipping AK here is good. The point is at this level the guys are going to show up with all sort of random hands that we crush so getting the money in the middle can never really be bad barring some read that villain is a super nit.

So you justtify the play by being results oriented? Sounds reasonable I guess
Snow
Results oriented approach to this would be folding preflop.

Lol you completely don't get my point...I'm not being results orientated. As Marginal pointed out folding would be results orientated. The fact that they showed up with the hands they did supports the fact that shoving is the correct play because.....THEIR RANGES ARE SUPER WIDE!!
DO YOU GET IT NOW! HOPEFULLY CAPS HELP!

OMG!!! Are tourney players this dillusional!!! It's so blatantly obvious that it really shouldn't need explaining but here it goes:
1. $2 rebuy tourney << was past the 'rebuy' point, and a $2 chump-change tourney.
2. I has AK << and you lost 75% of your stack with it, needlessly.
3. Get monies in middle << ez way monies go bye-bye.
4. rub winnings on titties << you now have empty bra. No 'rubbing' here.
Simple really

Delusional (<<) has absolutley nothing to do with it, except in your mind. I play mostly live tourneys at a lot more than $2 and enjoy being a winning MTT player. JMO, but Holdem is more than shove, push and pray. But if that's YOUR game ... enjoy it ...
... sadly, seems to be what many online players have evolved into.Probably common strategy if you're playing chump-change rebuys online. Try some real poker and you may not have to think that SHOUTING will change another player's opinion or winning strategies.

Lol I've come to realize it's an age thing...I think it's harder for old people to get a handle on the concept of equity. Not meant to be a shot just an observation. You obviously don't get even the most basic concept of poker....WE WIN MONEY WHEN OPPONENTS MAKE MISTAKES (ie when we get our money in good) REGARDLESS OF WHETHER WE WIN OR LOSE THE HAND. Like if we give this hand to any MTT pro they will all say the exact thing I'm saying.
Your not delusional....just extremely stubbornly arrogant.

2) OP got his money in with good equity
3) People tell OP to fold
4) People tell OP that this is standard
5) Math, logic, reason, sense supports number 4
6) 3 still continues
