Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t50 (8 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx (http://www.zerodivide.cx/converter)
MP2 (t1270)
CO (t1465)
Button (t1760)
Hero (t620)
BB (t350)
UTG (t680)
UTG+1 (t1205)
MP1 (t650)
Preflop: Hero is SB with A/images/graemlins/club.gif, Q/images/graemlins/heart.gif.
<font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises to t150</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero raises [t620] ...
Cutoff had been tight so far, but I thought that I'm usually ahead the CO raising standards here. My usual raise here would be 200, so I just shoved, since it's close to 30% of my stack. I thought calling was no option since I would have to play this from worst position on the flop, and the BB might join the fun too. Sounds reasonable?

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with A/images/graemlins/spade.gif, K/images/graemlins/heart.gif.
UTG calls t50, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t200</font>, <font color="#666666">6 folds</font>, UTG raises [t707] t50, Hero folds.
Final Pot: t325
This would be easy laydown for me if the villain were tight, but this was a VP$IP %40 loose player and I had seen some showdowns of crap hands from him too.
On the other hand, He's mostly likely holding here is a small pair. So I decided not to take the coinflip so early. Should I call this because there were already 325 on the pot?
