Co-hosts Chris Jones and Taylor Maas break down a hand from a WSOP Canada event at Playground Casino near the money bubble.

In Part 3 of our Common Player Mistakes series, we tackle one of the most widespread (and hidden) blunders in poker: shoving to avoid making tough decisions on later streets.

We break down why over-betting or jamming to prevent getting run down is costing you tons of win rate even when it works.
