Default Re: An Incredibly Mundane Question About Cold-Calling

As a general rule I think this is a fold unless you've already got cold-callers in front of you. Your read on two of your opponents shades it more toward a call* but not enough, IMO.

You're liable to be playing this hand against only two--maybe three (but possibly only one)--others, out of position, and you'll be very often dominated. Let's say a Q flops and you raise weak-tighty. He'll often just check-call you down with KQ or AQ; not folding, but doing nothing to let you know you're beat, either.

*If you're going to take advantage of weak-tightie's weak-tightness, what about 3-betting? Blow everyone else away and try to take it away with a nice (low) flop.
