Default Re: I bloat the pot, get cr all in.

Preflop 90% of time I'm getting it heads up with a very bad player or taking the dead money in the pot.

This has to be a joke. UTG min-raiser has to call $26 more into a $58 pot. He is calling almost always. And once he calls, the next guy has to call $26 into a $84 pot in which he will have position on a terrible player. No way he folds 90% of the time. And it's only worse for you with the third guy. If you want to re-raise here, $45-50 is the play. But personally, I hate the re-raise. What do you do when UTG then bumps it up to $150 and you end up folding your TT preflop instead of just calling his min-raise and having a chance to bust his AA. I did that once and had to fold and of course the flop comes Txx and AA stacks KK and I never re-raise TT in that situation ever again.

I don't like my flop play either, but you have a better alternative?

Flat call looks good to me. You have a very marginal hand. I probably call and dump it to a raise.
