no reads - w/o the overcaller here, im more inclined to flat call this guy's raise, and try to get it in on the turn. with the overcaller, is a push bad here? am i only going to be called by something that betas me if i push (well, maybe get called by an overpair or something).

i also considered folding, but with no reads, i dont think i can do that.

Default Re: ($55) bottom two, first level

bottom two is very vulnerable. since the opponent led out, i'm giving him more credit for top pair or an overpair than anything else.

I'd probably raise to T500 or just push. obviously you'd like the other guy to overcall, but your hand is just too weak as it is to NOT play it strongly.

also 'only going to be called by something that betas me' - bad thinking at the 22s,33s,55s. I wouldn't be surprised if you get called by an OESD, top pair, overpair (SLOWPLAYED AA GUYZ111) and all sorts of other random junk.

I'd be more willing to give him credit for a hand that beats you if you got check-raised STRONG, not minbet-raised.
