I was totally perplexed in this hand... should i have looked for a cheap showdown? Do I ever fold? I always have trouble w/ min-raises... i thought i was gona be waaay ahead, but something deep down told me GET OUT..... but i can't get out for a min raise... maybe he has AQ

CO is a solid player, and now i realize i shoulda looked for a cheap showdown, but with these stack sizes, am i already commited?

not too much that you can do... but my suggestion is that if youre going to go all in during this hand it should be the flop. there is no sense in letting a free card come off if you know youre pushing then anyway

alright cool, if the stacks weren't as big i wouldn't have been upset... but the stack sizes were so big (compared to what i normally sit down w/ $25)

At what stack sizes do i a.) start throwing them away b.) look for a cheap showdown?
