99 vs Push reraise

[Hendricks433]

Do I call this push or fold and save chips for a better spot? Its a $6.50 turbo so blinds get big quick.

eh..blinds are a little low for me to risk 1/2 my chips. open-raising is fine IMO given your M-L position/stack, but i think t250-300 would have the same effect (splitting hairs a bit) - regardless, folding to a reraise would be appropriate. given the size of your raise, the reraiser is certainly representing a strong hand here with a decent (though short-end) stack.

fold.

I fold here.

First of all, I think you raised a bit too much preflop. Go for a raise of t300 in this situation.

Second of all, villain will probably not suspect a steal from you here (unless you have an aggressive table image), but even if he does, what does he push here that you beat? Chances are he has a monster and is excited to get his chips in the pot.

Had this play come from the big blind, I may contemplate a call, but after you fold you're still sitting in fine position with ~20BBs.

easy call.

Please explain how this is an easy call?

the blinds in turbo sit and gos are murder.....youve already invested 350....might as well take your coinflip now

with 9 players still remaining its likely to turn into a mega-crap shoot real soon given how fast the blinds go up....take a coinflip and then youll be able to easily push aruond everyone else trying to slide into the money when the game turns into one huge crapshoot for everyone with under 2000 chips

Depends on Villain, I guess. Getting near 2:1, but Villain's not pushing a lot of hands here, I don't think...

[bluefeet]

(a turbo guy myself)

again, this is actually a very easy fold for me. there is absolutely no reason to 'take a coin flip now'.

the chips you are holding are worth MUCH MUCH more when the blinds do go up (FE...blind stealing). these very chips will win you far more T$ on the bubble vs. CALLING an all-in that could have you dominated. seriously. it's not that close at all.

easy easy fold.

[Hendricks433]

Yeah. Im gonna fold in this situation. Also I do believe I raised too much. I think I have to raise preflop though. I cant just limp with everyone folding to me here. I called and he turned over AJ and hit his J.

[lastchance]

Yeah, I raise to t250 here. Allows you to get away from the hand even easier, very easily, in fact.
