eh, tough spot splash. if he's reasonable (which it sounds like he is), you have pa-lenty of FE to fire back here.

Huh? He'd have to call 1010 to win 2920, and he's got you covered. Virtually zero FE, I would think.

It's close, but I tend to let this one go on the bubble.

Anyone who makes that sort of a raise without a very big starting hand is also the kind of player who folds getting proper pot odds to call. I see this type of play less now at the 55's than when I played the 33's, but it's there for sure. I have no problem with either pushing or folding, and I'm sure you can invent reasonable hand ranges based on your read so far to justify either one. When he calls with 99, you win Sklansky$.
