Default Re: Another Question:pre-flop

If there are no blinds, fold anything other than the nuts. If the antes took 99% of everyone's stack at your table, overcall all-in with 72o.

You need to consider how much strength is represented by your opponents' pushes. It doesn't take much to push UTG if you have a very short stack, e.g., less than the BB. It takes a lot of strength to push for 10xBB UTG at a full table. You can always call all-in with AA (except on the bubble), but whether it is a good idea with JJ depends on the situation.

If you think suited connectors are good, try them on twodimes against hands that are likely to get involved in a multiway all-in. JTs doesn't do well against QQ, KK, and AKs, even if none of the other hands has a card in the suit of the JT, which is quite favorable. After 3 people push, it might be right to get involved because of dead money in the pot, but I don't think you can expect to win 25%.
