I agree, was a "particular" way to defend your blinds. The term defend the blinds don't mean pay any raise that you receive with any card. But as killerpot said, everyone plays different.
Better luck next time.
Its seems like every site online has players complaining about the river. It can be a savior or an executionor but it is the same on every site, not just Stars.

That wasnt a bad beat that was justice for the terrible call you made preflop. It would have been an absolutely horrible beat for him if that hand you had held up...

Umm... okay so you said it was sick and you should've folded,.. but you didn't???... you raised???
I found the flatcall a bit odd as well,... why flat call with A-Q?,.. wouldn't you be wanting to isolate the shrt'r stk. allin?.. why give the initial raiser potential pot odds for making a call here? Were you thinking of folding if he were to raise you back 'allin'? Obviously not cuz you called it too.
Whoa,.. this was some strange play here (again). Might have to just sit out the next week's again.
GL!! (3rd in with J-J??)
The standard of play in some of these games is attrocious and personally my time would be better spent playing a 1000 person Fulltilt freeroll. I'd be more successful I know that
There is 'one' every week that appears and they are welcome.
[quote=iveyslovechild;44070]What in gods name posessed you to play a hand like 4 6 off suit in the first place ?
What makes it even worse is you called a raise with it...
Personally I don't see anything wrong with the call from the small blind,.. this is a 'ring game' not tourney-style poker. I wouldn't do it all the time but could be great +EV to make the call occassionally no doubt (for a measely 0.85),.. look at what you could win if you do in fact hit your hand (or even if you don't but feel confident in your abilities to outplay your opponent 'post-flop' and judging by the way your opponent played it, I could see very easily how any decent player would be wanting to call this player from the small blind with something like 4-6o --- his 'shove' is typical 'scared poker play',.. nothing like trying to massage the pot a bit???).
Ring game is quite a bit different from tourney-stlye of play -- alot more marginal calls ie. calling on small blind with 4-6o.. such a great oppurtunity to conceal your hand if you happen to hit. Depending on opponents, table, position, table presence & image, I'll very often (almost always) call off up to 5-6xbb raise with any pkt pr. (especially if I'm 3rd in.. in position). +EV can be HUGE!!!
