HERO?

first you have to figure out how many bb you have. you have a significant number more than 10bb. You can muck but the strongest hands here. you'll have to think about whom to steal blinds from.

[Hornacek]

Get rid of it. A raise and a reraise usually means trouble unless you have AA, KK, and (maybe) QQ. Easy fold.

[emptypockets]

So I take it you mean I should have folded this pf?

[Gyre]

That's and easy fold imo. A best you up against a underpair and 2 overs.

I'm confused - is hero Xthewall?

Yeah, what else are you going to do? Folding the flop after putting in half your stack is not a spot you want to be in.

Push/fold, and I think you should throw this away.

I think you screwed up in the beginning. You put in 20% of your stack to make a steal and got caught. If you call losing this pot knocks you down to 4th. If you could go back in time, I'd fold this (maybe limp? doubt it though) Right now I'd fold to the reraise and look for a better place to steal.

Must be, noticed that just know which changes things a bit.

You have to put in another t800 to make the call which will leave you with 1200 i you lose. I would probably call this. If you lose you still have a ok stack to fight with and if you fold you just spent t500 to weaken your image.

I dont like a fold with pp 7 here, you might reduce your bet to 400. It will probably be enough to steal the blinds and you have a bit more left if you have to fold to a bigger push. But folding 7s 5-handen with this large blinds must be to tight?
