A preflop question....
You're in the SB with A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
3 limpers, a raise, followed by a cold call by the button Your action, call or fold or hell why not raise? I can see a case for any of them.... Table is a typical mix of .5/1 players, original raise came from a decent player. |

Re: A preflop question....
I think we're calling. We don't want to force this HU between you and the other guy OOP.

Re: A preflop question....
The other thread has proven conclusively how much i suck at preflop, but i like calling best.
Folding sucks in what is going to be a big pot when we have a hand that plays well multiway. 3-betting sucks with a hand that may be dominated and that we're going to have to play OOP. Calling is juuuust right. (And obviously reads can push this towards a raise (when villain is a LAG) or a fold (when villain is a rock).) |

Re: A preflop question....
I did end up calling on the hand but never have I faced such a waiver in my decision
My initial thought was "call... I'm too loose in the small blind adn probably dominated, I'm gonna fold... but I could easily flop a nice draw in a big pot and my ace still MIGHT be ok.... well hell why don't I raise?... na just call" |

Re: A preflop question....
Well, as Phil Gordon says, "Only if you're not sure should you call." That line of thinking sounds pretty unsure [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].
This situation seems as good as any for the ol' "folding sucks, raising sucks, guess i should call" philosophy. |

Call - I don't think it's that close.

Call - I don't think it's that close. [/ QUOTE ] reasonable action hand, but you are out of position. Raising is out of the question here. However, since it IS a reasonable action hand, I don't think you can fold. |

Re: A preflop question....
I call here instead of raise because there's a good chance I'm dominated by the raiser and I'm in poor position here after the flop. I like the call due to the suited possibilities, the discount because I'm in the small blind and the solid kicker.

Re: A preflop question....
Call and hope for a good flop. I would probably get away from the hand if all I get is a pair of aces on the flop. May be dominated but it depends on the action post flop.
