think i read OP as MP3. nice catch.

Is there nobody that just calls here and then pushes a harmless flop? If a bunch of paint comes and villain leads you'll have decent amount of chips to double up with.

only if considered a shove after any flop. thats just me.

i usually fold this, and usually push TT. readless i usually fold.

edit: fwiw, i'm not 100% sure this is correct, and threads like this help to gradually cure me from my arbitrary TT/99 line.

i don't think it's crazy, but you hate to see a blind come in behind you.

Well right now my read on villain looks like a couple of paint cards, with that raise. I have him on AJ, AQ, KQ. If it falls down 552, or 10 8 4, I'm willing to push. If it's broadway esque around 6000 chips is not that bad to play with.

don't like calling unless I know I'm putting it allin after the flop, too much of a chance that I will have to be calling or folding to his CB. I'd rather push it in now while I still have some FE. who's to say what flop is harmless?

why, in gods name (Q%)(&#%*&@#*()%&*)!( AIYEEEYEE), would your read on villian be two paint cards specifically? ALL HE HAS DONE IS RAISE!!!

putting people on two cards you are ahead over is one of the biggest donkey leaks in poker. just because the only raising hand you are ahead of is two paint cards, DOES NOT MEAN YOUR OPPONENT HAS THAT HAND.

i think it's pretty reasonable to put villain on 3 hands after he makes one pre-flop raise.
