Re: AQ in a pickle
I like folding the flop. I'm only peeling a card off if I have two overs with my backdoor flush draw. It's very likely with the action on the turn that UTG has K little. I'm probably folding here...

Re: $50+5 PP Big drawing hand early
I don't think you have a lot of fold equity. Whether it's good for you or not, I don't see MP2 folding since he seems to like his hand. I'd probably take his min. raise as a sign of strength.

Re: Deep stack situation in 50NL
Thanks for the replies. Any thoughts on how stacked you and villain would have to be to make a fold plausible? 5 buy-ins? 6? I'm assuming most would still call and see what he does on the river then...

Re: Best ME in years??
I'm also glued to the coverage. I can't stop thinking of how great a final table with Ivey, Matusow, and Raymer would be. I honestly expected there to be 27 people I've never heard left at this point.
