Depends on the cutoffs stealing standards, a tight stealer I fold a loose stealer I call

You are leaving out some critical inforation in almost every hand. Sure we can give general answers but that won´t help you that much at the tables...

Is CO laggy, taggy or lp. does he steal more than 50% less than 20%? will BB come along no matter what? or is he tight preflop but an excellent and tenacious postflop player?
all these thing matter...
generally? I just call...

[/ QUOTE ]
how are my chances of getting checked to on the flop if I raise here? if they are good I prefer to raise in this spot regardless of the blinds really...

3. CO post blind out of position. UTG and 2nd player folds. You click the wrong button and limp with 55 (you wanted to raise). CO checks. Button raises. SB folds. BB reraises. What do you do?

[/ QUOTE ]

again reads would help... having said that i would call unless both button and BB are really tight,like reeeeally, in their raising requirements. Button could have a huge range here and BB doesn´t necessarily need to have a premium hand to threebet here

[ QUOTE ]
CO is first in and raises. Button calls. SB folds. You hold T9o in the BB. Do you call?

[/ QUOTE ]

generally no? does it happen? yes...

[ QUOTE ]
You are in the BB holding K4s. Cutoff is first in and raises. Button calls. SB folds. Do you call?

[/ QUOTE ]

Depending on the CO and BT, yes I would.

[ QUOTE ]
UTG raises and everyone folds to you who have 57s in the BB. What do you do?

[/ QUOTE ]

Unless I have some specific reads on how he play overcards/overpairs I fold here

[ QUOTE ]
G raises and only CO calls. You are in the BB holding K8o. What do you do?

[/ QUOTE ]

Fold no matter what...

Wow
I really have problems with these sorts of hands,
especially in the BB, where there is a Raise and a
call. YOu are getting 5:1 to see the flop and
my standards come WAY down to call. I think the
correct line moves all the time depending on the
Raisers standards and the callers standards.
I am usually trying to sit behind a player who
"calls" too much.

Given that, lets say the play is Raised by UTG
and called by EVERY player and you are in the BB
with 72o (assume a mix of players with at least 1
LAG 80/20/1.0) can you call given monster odds?
how about 34s or 92o??

I have always had problems with these types of
situations..

go back to your K8o hand and now put UTG raise, Button call and SB complete, can you call in BB?? Did your hand go UP or down in value?!?

I am going to put this q in theory too.

1. CO is first in and raises. Button folds. You are in the SB holding QJs. What do you do?

3bet. QJs flops top pair or a decent draw very often, and your 3bet preflop gives you strong fold equity on Axx and Kxx flops. Against a particularly tight blind stealer I fold this.

2. UTG (Loose-Aggresive) raises. 2nd player (Loose-Passive) calls. MP and CO folds. You are on the button holding A9s. What do you do?

Fold. Potential domination is too dangerous IMO to play here. If the MP and CO both cold called as well, domination isn't as big of a problem and I would likely call. If the loose/aggressive is completely nuts preflop (80/60 for example), I'd call or 3bet instead.

3. CO post blind out of position. UTG and 2nd player folds. You click the wrong button and limp with 55 (you wanted to raise). CO checks. Button raises. SB folds. BB reraises. What do you do?

I'm going to assume I'm MP here with 1 fold to me instead. I'd fold to the preflop 3bet getting at best ~3.5:1, unless I was almost positive that the CO was going to call too (then I'd call). The CO's check after your limp makes me think he'll fold much more often than not.

4. CO is first in and raises. Button calls. SB folds. You hold T9o in the BB. Do you call?

Call, I'm closing the action with ~5.25:1 and a CO preflop raiser could definitely be a weak hand. Again I fold to a very tight stealer.
5. You are in the BB holding K4s. Cutoff is first in and raises. Button calls. SB folds. Do you call?

Probably the same as #4, though I'd give more thought to folding since domination is a somewhat greater concern.

6. UTG raises and everyone folds to you who have 57s in the BB. What do you do?

Fold, I don't think it's close. A typical UTG raising range demolishes your hand, it's not enough to call getting 3.5:1 OOP.

7.UTG raises and only CO calls. You are in the BB holding K8o. What do you do?

Fold. Domination reason again.
