Default New to the 33s! Hand question

Bankroll is big enough to begin playing some 33s.

This hand.

Villian has done nothing to stand out up until this point.

Your play?

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t50 (8 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

BB (t725)
UTG (t865)
UTG+1 (t925)
MP1 (t1480)
MP2 (t990)
CO (t1230)
Hero (t670)
SB (t1115)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
5 folds</font>, Hero raises to t150</font>, 1 fold</font>, BB raises to t725 (All-In)</font>, Hero calls t520 (All-In).

Your chip stack is pathetic enough that you have to call.

I know you're on the button and you have 13 BB, but I might just push first off. You're definitely not inviting a call. And folding after your 150 raise just seems wrong. So I would probably just push straight out.

I feel exactly the same way. You need to bring all the FE into play here. Raising this hand instead of pushing is like attacking someone with a sword that's still in its sheath.

If you intend to call a reraise, just shove it in to begin with. Don't let them get any ideas that they can move you off a hand with something like QT.

You'll find that people push 66+, AJ+. I've even encountered bigstacks, like 1600ish, pushing 88 even.

Overall, I think a lot of coinflips happen on this level. Unreasonably so. Anyway, I think you have to call here.

Automatic call, not even close. You cant just fold and leave yourself with so few chips.
