I would call this but I don't mind folding, either. If you were the SB the fold would be super easy.

I agree. But I also really like the idea of this hand; a fold here is just a super interesting play, and usually the correct one.

At what limits though? A fold at the 11s and 22s and 33s is probably not the right play as you will see AJ and AQ and 72o as much as KK and AA or QQ.

Keep in mind that Curtains is playing in a somewhat different game than most of you are used to.

well you either push or fold. with a raise and a reraise some one has at least a pair. so at best you'll have a coin flip amusing you dont go against KK AA. you have 960 in chips so you dont need to get involed at all, so either raise or fold

Hero has position here though, so I would be less inclined to push and more inclined to call, see how the flop betting goes and actually play some poker. With no reads a fold looks fine here too.

Easy fold. You are sandwiched between two players who like their hand, and the only flop you are going to feel good about is QJT.

Accept the $EV from one of these players losing chips and move on.

Common, folding is ridiculous. Just call here, or possibly move all in if you think he is a retard (he probably is).

Oops, I misread the hand. I didn't realize there was two raises, I thought you were the one who raised, and the other person made like a min raise. My bad. Folding is correct.
