99- What's your line?

[locutus2002]

I usually play hands that are lower than a set.

I'm happy to see a single paint on the flop.

Hero's range is pretty tight to call 25% of his stack against an EP/MP raiser. Button, SB and BB aren't all going to push/call because they sense weakness.

You are not ahead. Is pushing OK, yes because it has high variance, but probably EV- (considering remaining players left to act) (its even against MP1).

I too play hands lower than a set obviously. However, what if Mr KQs on the button who has you all covered decides to push, seeing 2 limpers and a marginally strong hand, and oPFR calls? Do you fold off a quarter of your stack without a flop? This seems like the weakest idea, even worse than calling all in and taking a flop 3 way with 99. I don't like my chances there, and I don't like my chances after folding 1/4 my stack when I am supposed to be accumulating chips for 1st place.

I think it's a clear fold/all in situation - what makes you say Hero is not ahead, I am curious?

Can anyone tell me why re-raising to $4200 is bad? And push/call push on any board if u get called and then call an all in rereaise by original raiser?

putting 60% of your chips in at any point at any hand without going allin is pretty much never a good idea.
