So I was lucky enough to be dealt into a stars milestone hand in which everyone gets several buyins and the winner gets like 12 buyins. I read this, considered it briefly, looked down at my K2o and failed to consider the pot odds. The pot odds of a $25 shove into a $310+ pot. So, I folded my K2o. Which is unfortunate because it would have won.

Sigh. It's late and I'm tired. But throwing away 10 buyins because I think 12:1 pot odds aren't good enough to play with any 2 is frustrating.

Berate me please, I deserve it.

You should just push pf with any two.

Btw the the community cards are only determined right before they are dealt, so possibly you wouldn't have won.

theres no pot odds to consider about this. 2 cards + milestone hand = everyone should be shoving at the table
