Bluffing into dry sidepots...when dumb people get dumber

[bdawg31]

Yeah, i needed more info. I added an edit to the orignal post stating that Danny N did a much better job of setting up a scenario where it might be okay to bet into a dry pot.

Regarding the 'huge mistake at the final table' - i am not so sure i agree that you can say that. First, if i dont care about finishing 7th vs 8th - but i just really want to win - i dont care about slithering up a money spot. If i am playing to win - and i think that making a bet at a dry pot gives me a better chance to take it down (like in the example i tried to give) - why not make that play, even if it is the final table?
