I would personally raise to possibly get it heads-up and see where you are at. You raised representing strenght pre-flop. Maybe the EP is representing a king, but betting overcards? Not sure exactly what your position is, but you certainly have position on the player betting. Best case, your raise buys you the button and you get heads-up. If you are re-raised, you're probably behind. However, you may be called and then checked to on the turn. Then you are in control and can decide how to proceed with the hand.

Hey Chief--

Raise or fold. Hehehe, I'm so full of good advice [img]/forums/images/icons/smirk.gif[/img].

If the bettor is super-tight, I'd fold. If he's reasonable or loose, I'd raise. Did you have any backdoor outs? These may come into play on the turn...

Take care--

We need some more info Bull. Where is the other opponent? Behind you I assume? What are xx? Do they make flush and straight draws possible? The second question is very important. If there are no reasonable draws that your EP opponent could be betting, you should be much less likely to continue with the hand.

Fold in the absence of other information. Treat you LL players as straightforward unless shown otherwise. I assume the xx indicates there are no semi-bluff possibilities.

Default Re: Hello,Lobster!FOLDING is correct in MOST cases,I think..

In 1/2 games,I'm assuming that a player who bets into 2 or more other players have the 'goods'.
No,I had no other equity than my Q's. Sometimes the BEST advice consists of only ONE WORD... [img]/forums/images/icons/laugh.gif[/img]
