I'm not too fond of this spot since the UTG donkbettor is still live (probably a draw, but at these limits it's hard to tell), and it's hard to put MP on a hand - I would properly raise almost anything there against the donkbet including overs.

I think you're in a raise/fold spot where I'd lean toward folding, then again I play weak/tight early.

Well that's the whole point, with that action in front of you it's a high variance situation; sure you have overpair value, but you're not opening up the flop action and still have guys to act behind you.

I don't think there's a right or wrong answer, I just personally rather push a better edge later barring reads on the two that acted in front of you.

I'd probably fold.

Btw, do you know who deut23 is? Run into him in the turbos at all?

Sounds familiar...No notes on him or anything, so probably just once or twice. Play the 27s &amp; 60s..
Who is it? I'm going to be scared if I see him. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Meh, nothing to be scared of really, I'm just curious who it is.

Fold or Push.

No reads.

It just feels like a push here. I dont know why. I just cannot put anyone else on a higher PP with the way it has played out so far. Definately a fold/push situation, I think I am going to push this hand and cross my fingers LOL! This is indeed a high variance situation tho.

Why don't you put MP1 on a big PP? He raised 4xBB PF. Couldn't he be trapping with the small bet on the flop?
