Like many, I started with the Aleo guide and generally followed the rule "Never enter a raised pot without AA, KK, QQ, AK unless raiser has ½ your stack or less" in the 11s. Well, as I've gotten "better" I sometimes question this line, especially when you've got some dude min-raising all the time.
This is a $33. UTG is min-raising a wide range of hands here, on avg of twice an orbit.
Push/make a stand -or- fold/live by the first-in-the-pot-steal, die by the first-in-the-pot steal? For UTG, assume whatever you want about a player that is min-raising so much. I would guess he's holding top 50% of hands and 50/50 fold to the push, call the push.
