Hello,
My question is something related in my recent no limit game. Well, the blinds were in at 40/80. The first one to act during that game was my friend. He actually went all in about 200. Then there is that next guy who called all in for what he had, (61) chips the 40 and 80 blinds folded. By the way, he is not a blind.
After that round, I wondered whether everything was just a pre flop, if in case it matters.
In the end, the guy who had 61 chips in the pot won the hand against my friend. I’m thinking if you can break down everything, what amount of chips should he supposedly win in total? And one more thing, do you think his winnings came from my friend or from others?
Thanks,
Ashlon
Ashlon,
The opponent that bet out 61 should have won 223. The most he could win from any opponent was 61. You friend would get back 139 from his bet and would actually in 19 of the big blinds bet. The opponent with 61 would get back his 61, plus your friends 61, 61 from the big blind, and 40 from the small blind.
In the end, this hand only cost your friend 42 since he won 19 from the big blinds bet.
