All-in Etiquette

[PShabi]

If you are sure you have the best hand and want to protect it, bet. Don't bet a marginal hand, and don't fucking bluff. Check it down in those situations to see if one of you can beat him. It's not etiquette, it's common sense if the player's think about it.

lets clarify 1st,

was there any sidepot at all?

[PShabi]

Yeah, just came back to clarify on my end, "Don't bluff into the dry side of a pot." Size of side pot may effect it otherwise.

bluffing into a dry sidepot is just retarted anyways but if the sidepot is large enough to benefit u, why not bet into it? its just like winning anyother pot.

the only times i really just try to check it down fast is if we are on the bubble and i really want the all in guy gone, so more people in the hand the better chance for him to lose.
