depends on my reads of MP2 and maybe BB, especially. but lacking data, I standard raise and fold to a reraise (except for MP2 all-in and all fold back to me) and be happy with 10BB. - w

Raise to 250-300 (I usually raise to 275 but whatever doesn't really matter). Probably you hvae to fold to a reraise from most of the players, but ok it's nice to have a hand if they call you, or if the small stack goes allin.

Folding here is terrible. Raise to 3 BB and whether you call a push is read dependant.

I hate folding. I hate the idea that 150 chips mean nothing....they do mean something, more than people seem to think.

I raise to 3x BB.

If the person who pushes overtop of me is a known 2+2er... I probably insta-call.
