You say that you had only played a few hands...

It was level 2 right?

Out of curiosity, what is the min hand people would make this move on? JJ and QQ (since he probably doesn't have KK or AA with such a big raise)? What about TT? I guess with any of those holdings I'd just call the bet and fire if there were no A on the flop. What do others think?

Bye the way, what would you do here with AJ?

Not sure what you mean. If I had AJ instead of 33 or if I was my opponent playing AJ to an all-in raise from the SB?

No. I'm serious and trying to learn from my mistakes. That's all.

As said by others, I fold here.. I fold here 100% of the time at this blind level.

I'd fold. It's too early for pushing with baby pairs. Especially when you're not the shortstack.

I'm not going to dispute these critiques. I can't. But did my opponent make a correct of my all-in w/AJ there? Shouldn't he have laid down that hand?

Whether or not he *should have* isn't important (at all really). What's important is what the monkeys do at the buyin you're playing after raising such a substantial amount.

Also, I can't think of any hand the villian would play that you're really a substantial favorite against here. I understand you feel that you *should* have FE here....but you don't have nearly enough to warrant even *considering* pushing (again, this does depend on level and specific opponent I'd imagine...but..meh).

I don't call in his/her position, but I would expect a lot of people playing at the 11s to call. I would think that you would have the same expectation.. Can you answer the following questions for me

What hands did you put him on when you raised?

Of those hands, which hands did you expect him/her to fold to your all-in?

How many of those hands have you dominated?

Are you dominating any of them?
