My first ever thread and I am interested to see what you think about the following hand.
Down to the last six in an online Pot Limit Omaha tourney, only the last five get paid ranging from $1600 to $320. Three of the final table (Players B, D and E) have been regularly using the chat box, first in German and, after a warning from another player, in English. The three all seem well acquainted with one another. Part of one conversation relates to how much player D has won this last month and how much player B desperately needs to cash.
Chip standings are as follows:-
Player A - 20880
Me - 7780
Player B - 5520
Player C - 31805
Player D - 38160
Player E - 8355
I post SB of 400, Player B posts BB of 800.
Player C folds.
Player D calls 800.
Player E folds.
Player A folds
I fold.
Player B checks.

Both check.
Turn
Player B bets 2000
Player D calls 2000

Player B pushes all-in for his last 2720, pot is now 8720.
Player D will still be chip leader with 32640 if he calls and loses the pot.
Player D folds.
Thoughts please........
