Default Re: PF Decision: Facing a push

1) This is fine preflop play with all of the hands you listed, you could even raise more with them after that many limpers if you wanted to actually fold some of them out. (I would also make this raise with AQo, and AJ or 99 wouldnt be too far behind, although I think you'd get more value by just calling with 99.)

2) Call the push with AA and KK, obviously, and probably QQ as well. And to be honest, against an average NL25 opponent, i'd probably call with AK as well, because there are plenty of people who'll push AQ or worse in there in that situation. JJ is close to AK in that regard, but there are some stupid hands that you arent much ahead of here (AQ, KQ) and you're farther behind KK and QQ. I'd be more likely to fold JJ than AK.

3) Yea, it does suck to have no reads. but at this level, you don't really need them to cash in big. Just assume that everyone sucks until proven otherwise.
