Default Re: Live at the Taj 1-2NL

I don't like the raise in front of a few limpers. I'll make this raise in front of one or two. And is 15 the standard open?

I think I raise the first bet to 75. If BB pushes, it's a tough fold and I don't think you can make it. But if these people are donkeys, you will see Q6 and AQ enough times with a three bet.

Since you didn't do that, I like calling the min-raise. Someone is definitely drawing here, and probably drawing very live (i.e. flush draw and inside or outside straight draw); they'd be willing to get it all in on a flop but not on the turn. But I don't know what to do on a blank turn if SB bets though - probably have to get it all in and hope. Calling also is dangerous if a K or A comes out - someone may have two paired over you.

Tough hand. Made tougher by your pre-flop raise.
