If you are one of the better players at the table, it is a good fold. Don't sweat the results. The poker gods like a good laugh.

It's early, you're not hurting that bad, and you've still got lots of players to act after you. I like the fold.

[Newt_Buggs]

calling would take 1/7 of your stack when you will only flop a set 1/8 times. you shouldn't have to even to think twice about folding this

[Cleveland Guy]

Given the short stacks - this is a good fold.

With deeper stacks, folding would have been a big mistake to the Min raise.

[ilya]

This is a good fold. It would have been a good fold with the same stacks and the same 2xbb raise at 15/30 blinds. At 10/15 blinds I think folding would still be ok, but you could definitely also call.

[valenzuela]

it is the right play.

[tomdemaine]

Now there's only one person to act after me, I already have money in the pot, and it's a higher pair. Still a good fold?

I'd likely call here for 65 with 155 in the pot.
Put your opponents on a range of hands.

[tomdemaine]

I would guess AK AQ AJ A10 and PP's from about 8's to about J's maybe Q's

[Cleveland Guy]

Hardly the same.


First off - in a 6 player game, your limping with TT fromt he CO? WHY?

2nd - the player behind you now limped on the button, so he doesn't have a strong hand.

This is a raise of 3xbb - from the BB, but you already have put in 1 BB, and there is another BB, and a SB already in the pot.

Folding here is a huge mistake IMO.

There is a big difference between a UTG min raise at a full table - vs. a BB 3x raise at 6 handed.

Calling here is automatic, possible to raise depending on your read on the BB.

[Misfire]

Now you're probably getting a little over my head. Without a read on the raiser, I'm not sure the play here. On the one hand, the call is sure tempting. On the other, it still seems pretty early to be calling 1/7 of your stack on a so-so pair.

[sabre170]

With this range of your opponents' hands, is calling with TT a good move? Think it through.
