Say, when a stranger finds a game and wants a referral fee, when one player isn't bankrolled but is performing some difficult task on the game, when one player develops a strategy for a game but is unable to play for whatever reason, when one player has no skill or bankroll but is just being used as a gorilla to get more money on the table, etc. There are countless other situations, but those are a few that come to mind.David Spencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05916214881343939123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4082481490083758475.post-20583450440325001052013-02-18T10:09:16.157-08:002013-02-18T10:09:16.157-08:00Nice post indeed.

I couldn't agree more that milking and butchering have their place and time, and, when in doubt--butcher!<br /><br />For the play described in point 2, we ended up barring ourselves when we thought there was some heat. But I always felt we quit a little prematurely. When I ran into the pitboss on that game a year later, it was clear they had no idea what our move was and probably would've let us keep playing. Though our decision at the time was reasonable, and along the lines of "better safe than sorry," in hindsight we might have won another 50K or so. The point is, rarely will you regret being too aggressive on a game.David Spencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05916214881343939123noreply@blogger.com
