Picture the scene. On the final table - glory in sight. Hours of patient play has been rewarded with a big stack of chips. The clock approaches 11.20pm and with blinds increasing fast but still not critical you face an allin. You look down at your cards and see 44.
You consider all the factors. 44 against any essentially any two cards is a race. Against almost any pair you are drawing to two outs. More importantly factor in the fact that the ferry leaves at 11.30pm. Factor in the fact that you've been drinking all night to the extent that you you've forgotten that a 12.30pm ferry exists. Factor in your name is Moocher and you always go allin with a low pair.
Take into account all these factors, dear reader, and you have an easy call. Now factor in you are up against AA.
The good news......
You catch your ferry.
Nonetheless Moocher makes the final table and a highly creditable 5th position as he attended Drop on the chance that a spot was available and his speculation is rewarded.
Nice one , sir.
As for me. I decided a Malibu and Pineapple would be nice follow up to a tequila shot. Does that sound like the thought process of a sober man.
