DefaultRe: Ridiculous ruling in the APPT 6max event

this is definitely one of those 'spirit of the game' things... and unfortunately, the spirit of poker is exploitation, so you can't really bemoan a guy for shoving here. i definitely base whether or not i shove on how much i like the person, and how much i would like them to continue playing poker.

so i would 80% pot my friends, and anyone who is likeable and really bad at poker. but anyone competent that i'm neutral towards personally where there is no chance it is going to put them off playing poker, i would shove.
