What do you do with 55 here?
Villain seemed to be a pretty solid player. What’s your play here? I don’t like pushing here at level 3. I think reraising is completely out of the question due to my stack size. If I call I’m out of position, and am going to be facing overcards. Do I try a stopngo here? Or do you just decide not to invest another 7% of your stack and fold?

Re: What do you do with 55 here?
this seems like an easy limp; or a fold if raised.

this seems like an easy limp if no one opens before you and a simple fold to a raise. [/ QUOTE ] huh? hero's in the bb facing a miniraise... i think i call here more often than i honestly should. this is one of those spots where i try to figure out what curtains would do, because i play a little too loosey at 25/50 i think, especially out of the blinds. it's very possible call is perfectly acceptable. if villain has been solid though, pushing seems attrocious. citanul |

Clearly I can't read position unless its teamfu |

Calling a raise of 100 becomes 12.5% of hero's stack for no reason. [/ QUOTE ] hero's already got 50 in the pot, and is facing a raise to 100, so 50 more. citanul |

Re: What do you do with 55 here?
Right. So calling another $50 hero would need to win $400 to breakeven. There is already $175 in the pot so hero needs to win another $225 to breakeven. Hero also has to consider whether having $645 all the time is better than having $595 7/8 of the time and whatever he will win on average(lets say $1100) 1/8 times. I don't know what is correct but I would call here most of the time.

I knew what he meant. Call the 50 and see what the flop brings.
