I don't like our position in relation to the preflop raiser, so that probably makes it a fold for me.

MLHE assumes the limpers are decent players so your T9s is likely a weak holding.

It really depends on the lineup, mostly I'd call here but if there are agros in the blinds or someone who likes to limp reraise then you can fold.

Also if the limpers are tight then they probably have hands at least as good as yours probably better.

"Suppose you have Td9d on the button. Three people limp and the cutoff raises. What do you do?"

Never fold.

In no particular order and with no mutual exclusivity ...

I'd reraise if the blinds are tight but not so tight that they don't need an extra reason to fold.

I'd reraise if the cutoff is a button thief.

I'd reraise if these are check-to-the-reraiser kind of folks.

I'd reraise because reraising is fun.

I'd call if the big blind is calling no matter what.

I'd call if the cutoff is definitely not being spunky or getting out of line.

I'd call if everyone in the pot so far is playing well at the time.

I'd call because calling can be fun too.

Folding also doesn't make any money here. I wholeheartedly agree with Tommy's post here.

Interesting statements:

1) I'm fairly aggressive and maybe sometimes too aggressive
2) Tommy is oftentimes (wrongly) accused of being too passive
3) Tommy is more aggressive with this holding than I would be
4) I've been thinking about 910s far too much today and points 1-3 aren't going to help matters in the next few days in regards to this point
5) The guy who, to my knowledge, didn't accept the other Barron's one-on-one challenge (that was the two of you, right?) likes my posts

I think I'm going to take a nap now.

That's mostly a result of his posts when he's out of position. He's got the button here and Tommy loves his button.
