		If someone just after the button goes all in and alot of people call, it wouldnt be crazy to call even if your cards are rubbish. You would of course have to be a loose player, but everytime ive seen it done its worked pretty well!!! This may sound like ive just accidently eaten some magic mushrooms, however the theory is that if all the callers have deacent cards, then on a table of 10 players, thats pretty much all the monster hands there is, leaving the community cards favouring the not so good hand... Does anyone agree??? Or do you all think im going mad??? GL for the future!!!

		As has been pointed out (quite accurately in my view) on another site, if you had eaten magic mushrooms you would not want to call anything with anything.

		i "somewhat" agree (in more the opposite scenerio). If, say, you have AA and there are 4 all-ins (u being the 5th), the chances of your aces holding up is not good. (im talking preflop all-ins). In your situation, 2 live cards are just as good as any when there are 5 all-iner's (preflop)....MY opinion.

		Calling an all-in with 5 callers with rubbish has nothing to do with strategy. it´s simply foolish and indicates a weak player. stop munching on them mushrooms!

		Magic Mushrooms should be encouraged more in poker i think. Not that it will improve your game. It will just make getting donked that little bit more colourful.

		Where have you been pavlos?! The labrats are waiting for some extra support/kick up the azz!, etc. As for your theory- call one of my all ins, and see what happens!

		i agree .underdog cards seem to win more than pat cards do with multiple all ins

		Yup, the software is rigged slightly in the bigger stacks favour. Hence why in turbo tournaments especially, the biggest stack nearly always wins multiple all-ins, whether they have the best hand or not.
