Fold preflop please.

the reason i raised was because Mp1 had been limping with all kinds of weak hands through out the game .. but maybe you are right

Did you notice if he was calling any raises with those hands preflop? or just limping and folding to raises? not a terrible play to make, but I would think if you dont want him in either make it more expensive for him to call, or get a hand you can be more confident to push with.

I don't like this play for two reasons:

1. The preflop raise was too weak. If you're going to make this move, make it around t500.
2. There are too many people acting behind you for this to be a +EV play. You're going to get called an awfully large amount of the time.

So yeah, fold preflop.
