Late is $30 DS, JJ
 

About 95 runners or so left, 63 "cash."

I'd been moved to the table several orbits ago and it's TIGHT. Almost nothing is getting to a flop as the standard 3-4xbb bet is taking nearly everything down uncontested.

I'd been doing my fair share of stealing with pure air when folded to me. Table has several stacks under T20k and it seems they're all looking to make the $.

We're 8 hands into level 9, 600/1200/75, I'm below the average stack with T32k, with only 3 players lower than me at the table but, nary a big stack is playing table captain, TIGHT, TIGHT, TIGHT!

Hero???

Like I said, there' been much of NO post flop play so when he called, I was a little weary, but it didn't feel like a, "quit stealing my blinds" defense call.

Seeing the King SUX but I can't fear the monsters, right?

If I fold here, I'm left with T24k and can most likely work the stack back up.

If I make the call and win, I'm in great shape to make it deep.

What to do, what to do?

Fold. This check-raise is very rarely worse than top pair.

Re: Late is $30 DS, JJ
 

This one most likely coulda went without being posted, hated the check-raise, thanks!

Re: Late is $30 DS, JJ
 

I agree with ansky, fold to the check-raise.

What does DS stand for? All I can come up with is Double Shootout but that makes no sense here...
