The 2 big stacks have been wild with their chips. Playing mediocre hands like KT like they are the nuts PF and TP-weak kicker like it is bullet proof. Now even more so since they aquired big stacks. The short stack is nitty tight. He has been below 1K chips about 3 times and doubled up since we have been getting such good odds to call him from the blinds.
I have been shoving hands like AJ and 88 since those guys are likely to call with lessor hands most of the time. But I've been getting all folds most of the time since they respect me. I got 55 this time and thought I'd do it again. But my luck ran out.
I know this is a horrible play, but I just want to know different opinions on why it is so horrible. Implied odds, bubble play, and stuff like that. I just need a different perspective. Thanks.
