Any read on the raiser?

If he's been somewhat loose, I think this push looks good, especially with that cold caller.

You are normally beat by the UTG raiser here.

This is a clear push/fold spot, and I lean toward folding, but it's tough.

Well the problem is, it's really difficult to put bad players at these levels on a "proper" thought.

With the UTG raiser's stack size and min raise, one might think: "He has a monster and wants action." But time and time again, I've seen many people in this scenario min raise with Ace+rag, or 2 face cards. If that's the case, I think pushing is leaning more on the correct side because my stack is low and I need to double up.

I dunno though, I've been in a funk lately and everything is second guessed.

UTG raised 3x BB. I think that can be much scarier than a minraise, because minraises are made by donks who don't know what they're doing. 3x BB raises are normally made by people who have some idea what they are doing, and they generally have you beat here.

Perhaps it's time for me to go to bed. Not knowing the details of your own hand history post = not good.

But ya, that 3x BB raise at his stack does smell like a good hand.
