Yes, a tiny bit.

Like, what level is it?
How many limpers?
Any raises?
Stack sizes?
Any significant reads on the players in the pot?

That's the problem with the question. It's unanswerable in it's current form. What do I do with ATs in position?

Sometimes I call. Sometimes I raise. Sometimes I fold.

Raise all-in, every time. The significant fold equity earned by applying this principle in situation=RANDOM makes this a fantastic and highly profitable play.

You don't even have to be on the button with a premium hand such as ATs.

Reconsider if not suited.

you are correct, the question was very plain and simple. in fact, it was too plain and simple. it is unanswerable in its current form.

Ugh, when I said 'try again' I didn't mean repost the same non context thing. Try again giving more information!!!

C'mon, you don't really think all this other information doesn't matter here do you??

He's new. I think my 5th post was something like, "Look at Gus Hansen's ears! Do you think he is part vulcan? That could explain why he is able to make the calls he does."

Note to OP: Context (unlike size (not that I have anything to worry about)) does matter.

You're right of course, SS.

Per original post: f-it, go allin.
