Alright guys, Shuffle Up & Deal !

Can someone please explain something to me. Why is it so freaking hard to fold a flush draw. Does anyone realize that if you DON’T hit, you could loose 3/4 of your stack?? In a 30K+ guaranteed game, is it logical to take such a chance Sorry guys, I just don’t get it. Is my logic flawed in any way. Please take the time to answer me, cause I’m at a lost here. I guess I could just throw in my entire stack on a flush draw on the next game and say “hope I get lucky”. I know this game is full of donks but come on!!!!! When you are short stacked it’s one thing, but when you have to throw in 3/4 of it, specially when you are well placed, why jeopardize your entire tourney on one hand !!!

Ty for believing in me. I had a good chance, if it had not been for this …well should I say it, donkey!!
