I'd raise to 3x the BB. [/ QUOTE ] That's bad advice. You have minimal folding equity. I prefer a check, with the plan to bet most flops if it is checked to you. A push is questionable. A check and bet on the flop is better, I think. |

Re: Standard Push?
Unless he is tricky, I'd push this.

Re: Standard Push?
I guess I should have also added the tricky part. If he limped with AA earlier then I might just check. But if he is standard I push immediately like it was a no-brainer with my monster cards.

Re: Standard Push?
I like pushing this best, but I dont think its bad to check it and see a flop. You have position.
I dont like the 3x BB raise. This is bleeding chips in many cases. |

[/ QUOTE ] I understand that desire, but you risk a re-raise all-in from a thinking/tricky player. Either shove it or take a free flop. The 3xBB raise is just asking for trouble, though. |
