Fold JJ to a single minraise. |

[/ QUOTE ] Well, you're getting a little short early on and I think that even against an UTG min-raise, you're ahead of his hand range. Also, I don't think that this is a spot you wanna fold, and it's not a spot you want to play OOP against 6 opponents, so I think that a push to isolate UTG is the best bet. |

[/ QUOTE ] I agree that I'm likely ahead of his range, but a push is a big overbet, so I am worried he will fold most of the hands I beat, except AK and perhaps TT. If he's raising with 88+, AQ+, and calls with TT+, AK...even assuming no one behind me picks up QQ+.... 12 times i pick up 175 17.63 times i win 960 23.37 times i lose 885 and bust... for a net loss of about 30 chips. and there's an 8% or so chance that someone behind me has picked up QQ+. |

Re: ($55) Awkward spot with JJ preflop
Take this for what it's worth from someone who plays the 33s and below:
The simplest answer is that I can't see folding here and calling and pricing in further callers, possibly to give up the best hand post flop is not attractive either. IMO, you have a ton of FE by pushing. I don't know if this is true for the 55s but I've been noticing alot more of this mini-raising crap from UTG starting on level 3 recently. His range is WAY looser than you are giving him credit for, I believe. As for pushing and running into QQ+ behind you, I think that's just a chance you have to take. Stuff happens. In this spot, pushing JJ is almost automatic for me against a mini-raise. (Of course I have to again place the disclaimer that I play 33s and below. But judging from some of the hands I've seen posted, I don't think that my guess that we are often way ahead of UTG even in a 55 is way off.) |
