I hate this situation, and if I'm not in the mood I'd fold, but if I played I think I'd reraise and add the BB's money to the pot.

If this was unsuited you'd have any easy fold. But because it's suited it makes things a bit more difficult.
Opp here is quite loose, but his aggression isn't that high. His pfr numbers are only slightly on the high side (although I suspect for 3/6 a 20% number is very high compared to the average player). One thing I'd want to know is where his aggression numbers come from. Does he try to blind steal a lot or are is his blind steal number also about 20? If his blind steal number is significantly higher that means he plays position in his raises and you should give more credence to this particular raise, since he's not in a steal position. Another consideration is the number of hands that you're basing this on. If I choose to play this (and I might, although it's close) I would tend to semi-cold-call and try to bring BB along. I want to jack the pot in case I hit. I want all the implied odds I can get. If there was a cold-caller in front of me I'd be much more inclined to play (better implied odds). The hand is weak and speculative. You're out of position for the rest of the hand (even more so if you 3 bet). Nothing wrong with folding this and waiting for a better spot. |

Just a note that when I posted this reply I completely forgot about the blind structure at 3/6. That makes this an easy fold out of the SB.

Here's one I had this morning that I just froze and had no clue what to do. Everyone is an idiot, although UTG has been raising a good bit the past couple orbits. The blinds are loose, although they'll likely fold the real cheese if faced with a 3bet.
3/6 Party, 6 handed Hero is Button with J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Preflop: <font color="red">UTG raises,</font> MP calls, CO folds, Hero... I really had no idea if I should CC, 3bet, or fold. I don't particularly want it 3way, but CC'ing gives me the willies and is something I almost never do, and JTs seems like too much to fold if its going to be 4 or 5 to the flop. |

i play a couple of short deck games (in particular manila) where every straight has a J and a 10 in it so J10 becomes a special hand - in full deck games J10 is the lowest combination of honour cards - AKA the rank challenged good cards - i have issues with J10 too
i like to fold it but i'm confident it wouldnt be hard to profitably cold call stripsqueez - chickenhawk |

Nay, this isn't a steal, he will VERY often have you dominated. And the fact that your hand is suited doesn't help greatly HU.
I fold this pretty much every time. |

Thought so. This guy isnt a good poker player, but he knows about blind stealing. I guess its ok to give up your blinds. Does the decision change if I'm in the BB though? What if he's on the button?

I fold from the SB, and call/c/r just about any flop. The flop plan can change depending on how he plays postflop and what the flop is.
