Default Hello,CJ! Folding is correct! Your odds...



have have reduced drastically by the re-raise. U ready don't want to try for a two-outer on the J's.

However,if your opponent has a big pocket pair and he is capable of releasing it if U pair your doorcard with another "9",then it's more of a call. U then have more ways of winning the pot.

But he might have trips and I don't know if he is capable of folding a set of 5's even if he puts U on a set of 9's.

*******************************************

Because of the implied odds if U nab a "J",calling is not bad,but I think folding is best.

******************************

I,personally,do not like to play "close call" situations.

However,in a high middle limit game,U would generally see two more cards--U would have more of a reason to continue to play(more dead money in the pot)

******************************

In a higher middle limit game,U would re-raise the tight player,hopes he has a big buried pair and not trips. Although U would be an underdog,U would still be a "money favorite" in the long run .

The "dead money" in the pot would compensate for your underdog status.

Happy pokering,
