Really? On a gut shot???

How many ppl would actually risk all there chips on a gut shot. Say you have 6 8 offsuit. u call a 1200chip raise preflop. flop is 447. Opponent goes checks. NOW would u push all in and hope for the best or would u check and see whats next?

If you push and hope for the best. IMO you should quit playing poker cause you will never win big tournaments like that and you will never be that lucky everytime. YOU WILL LOSE 9 out of 10 times. I just have no luck. I always miss my gutshots but they always hit when im playin against em. KILL ALL DONKS!!!! fuckin jackass

thats called a semi bluff, its a valid move imo

Yup, it's a semi-bluff. While most players would check, some know that you have nothing and will just push so that you fold.

What did you call with AHigh?

well you don't say the post size so we don't know if it was a good bet or not

gut shot would be a call for your chips, as u checked ure showing weakness imo

IF I have good reads of the players at my table I wouldn't do it, also it has to do with table dynamics too like blinds, stack sizes, stage in tournament, how many players left till bubble all these things have to be taken into affect, yes there is a LUCK factor involved, you can not beat luck it's that simple.

My advice, move onto the next hand and beat him or her at that one simple. Bad beats WILL happens it's apart of the game.

C'mon man, think about it for one second. Do you really think he shoved to your check praying for you to call? If you wanna kill all donks then suicide is in your future.

yeah check call was not the play here. he was wanting you to fold. if you shoved and he called then you can call him and donk and want him to die but you checked. your bad. get over it and move on.

Its hard to pick these scenarios apart not knowing, level in tourney... chips stacks, blinds.

Its better to bet all your chips then to call your chips on bs, so they say LOL Excluding a miracle you have to know ur beat if someone calls your shove! but since this is online you will have more of these agg betters pushing trash hope you whiffed LOL

hmmm.. sounds like another angry poker player... lets not forget how we make $ in poker... its not off the regs

This isn't a "semi-bluff". A semi-bluff is when you make a move while having a legitimate amount of outs. You almost always have at least an out or 2 when you get it in behind....doesn't mean that everything is a semi-bluff just because you have a few outs. Shoving here is a pure bluff.

thats why we call them donks , cause of unreasonable moves like this

This so much

If you can't beat donks, you better stop playing. Because there are plenty of them everywhere! so think about it

This is true, but sometimes donks are just too damn lucky and there's nothing you can do but get it in good.

thats a legit move and sometimes you just gotta go with what you feel
