Default Re: 200 PL AA line ok?


I dont like it.

You're in terrible position. Facing a better with a player behind with a very mediocre hand.

When people make mini-bets, a saying I've heard, they rarely like calling a pot-size re-raise.

On the turn, I'd be tempted to raise or fold. I might not raise the pot though. Maybe you get 3rd player out and get checked to on the river and it'll cost you about the same. If you get reraised you're done.

Folding isn't bad. You have only a pair and no low draw. You've got a player in first position betting. You've got a caller who has connected somehow with a high 2 card flop. There's another hand dealt after this. Seems a bad play to put in money with a mediocre hand in a bad position. If the caller behind you has a set on the flop, you're going to get raised regardless on this flop. He might even raise without the set with two pair and a low draw. Or even top pair and a low draw. You're not guaranteed to see the river cheaply and that's what you really need to do with this hand. Maybe if you were in last position it might be worth calling with this hand. What will you do on the river if the first better makes a 1/2 pot bet even? Call it ?

You're getting sucked into this 3-player pot with a hand that can stand absolutely no heat.
