I was in a larger than normal home game. 33 people to be exact. Its down to the final 5. I just had my pretty large chip stack crippled by a bad beat.
the blinds are 500/1000 with 100 ante My chipstack is now 1600.
I throw in my ante and the dealer tells me im on the big blind so I throw in my 1000. (stack now at 500).
I get dealt 2 6 offsuit. The table folds around to the small blind and then the dealer realizes that she screwed up the blinds (which IMO is the fault of everyone at the table, especially those in the blinds,
ME
) Anyways, the dealer gives me my blind back (chip stack back to 1500) and tells one player to put in their small blind, which he surrenders saying he would have folded anyways (good thing his cards were already mucked). The big blind puts in his 1000 and he says check and they ask me what I want to do.
So I think that next hand I have to go all-in with whatever 2 cards I have anyway, so I go all-in with my thinking being at least I have it isolated to 1 oppenent instead of 4.
He has A J offsuit (of course he calls) and I lose the hand. No big deal really. Just curious if you guys think that my thinking was right having one player isolated with 2 6 off and going all in at that point knowing that I will have a better hand next hand but there could be 3 or 4 other players in the next hand.
P.S. All 5 players were alright with the screw up and did not call misdeal and I surely did not want a misdeal knowing everyone folded and I had someone isolated before I would be blinded out anyway.
