What are your thoughts on this play
ps. I'm the SB and fold 55

If player A is the type to limp 44 here and call a raise and a push, I don't like it and think D should find someone else to bluff.

The C Kid

The "squeeze play" is the most horrible, over-used move in poker at the moment.

Thank You Dan.

whats worse is that people keep using the term in situations which have nothing to do with the squeeze play

How about player D is just a gambler thats courting a call so he can double up seeing as its in the rebuy stage?. Thats what it looks like to me?. I dont think its a Squeeze play.

BTW i agree with the C Kid. Too many players make the 'squeeze play' move because they think they are a special player, one of a kind sort of a player.But really they're just the same sort of jerks and idiots as the rest of us:) !.

Is it really in the rebuy period? Nh then, I don't think there's anything to discuss.

Well come on now, if I didn't know that how was player D supposed to know?

MrPillowTalk

when used correctly the "squeeze play" or whatever its called is one of the most effective plays in poker.
