I saw Friis make his way to victory in the playr league. Truly amazing !! All in all in all in and win win win, the most amazing victory I have ever seen...... Is there ever a time to give up though ? I was in this position this morning and had sh1t cards for ages, did I do the wrong thing ? I gave up. Saw no point trying anymore.
Total number of players : 3
Seat 2: TonioRomes (5760)
Seat 6: Luckee_Tiger (13330)
Seat 9: Playr_Angel (910)
Playr_Angel posts small blind (300)
TonioRomes posts big blind (600

All in with 3 2 os... and after clicking the button thought of friis and his win. Maybe I could have waited until I was a blind again and caught AA. regardless does anyone else ever just give up like this ? :o
And before anyone says it, I know it shouldnt have come to this point anyway, sometimes it just does though lol.

Wondering what happened the previous two hands with a low stack like that best value would have been to push 2 hands previous UTG as this is best return for your bet as you auto get 600+300 at least if they fold, which of coarse they arent going too, but this is what i would do anyway.

You should never give up. Some people play light/easy when they're in the money, that's terrible. You will miss out on more money, guaranteed.

you obviously shouldnt give up. in this specific case you have about 32 percent equity which means that this play will not win you money but you are not very likely to pick up a hand which will be a big favorite and you already have a 3rd of your stack commited so i owuld just stick it in and hope to double.
