Default Re: what play do you make here?

Personally (and, don't get me wrong, this is a tough hand to play, I think) I think you're better off playing but not pushing. Why? Well, if you push you're only getting called by a seriously strong hand and may very well be an underdog.

But...

ATs 4-handed is a strong hand -- very possibly the best hand right now -- and I think you'd like some action on it.

I would say raise to about 3xBB (which is 2x pot here). If BB comes over the top, I would let it go unless you have a read on him as a pretty serious blind defender. If he folds, you pick up the blinds and no harm done. If he calls, you can see the flop and go from there.

no way...hate the 3bb raise here.

I might just call here.

If you call and he pops it, what do you do? Don't you think just calling cuts off some valuable info we'd get by raising?
