flopped middle pair with JTs

[sweet wicking action]

We've been at this final table for maybe two orbits, and i have to think that people view me as rather tight, as they are respecting my pre-flop raises. i think this is the first flop i've seen at the final table. i have no real reads on the villain. what should i do on this flop?

[Superfluous Man]

You have 8 BB and you're in EP. You can't really do anything other than push or fold. I would fold this preflop from that position (I'm pushing it from the CO though).

Since you somehow put in more than a third of your stack here preflop, you have to get the rest of it in when you hit middle pair. Jam and hope he has 99 or folds.

You do realize you have 40% of your stack in the middle right?

Push or fold pf.

Flop, easy easy easy push.

cant fold. easy push. preflop wouldve prob folded, but agree that from cutoff def raise.
