when the blind bets i think, hmmm, i either have best hand and wont win much, or i dont, and i can lost alot.

this is my main concern as well. With 380 already in the pot though I just don't think that hero is behind often enough to fold this. I'm raising to t600 and calling his push if he does; if he's crazy enough to do this with a 3 (which many $50 players are) then he might also top you as well. I definitly don't disaprove of a fold here though.

You know, you've got very little invested into this hand. I don't think you should feel wrong to let this one go.

Booooooooooooo.

I let this go with 88 (not with TT, though) but this is the exact wrong thing to say about this hand.

That's how i felt, does anyone's answer change if i have less chips? Say 1/2, or 800 chips? Do i go to war in that case and jeopardize my entire stack, instead of alot of it?

. .i just don't see villan leading t200 into a t180 flop from the SB with five to act behind him if he has x2 or 33. If there was a peflop raise from somewhere else, perhaps, but everyone limped.

You're drawing to two outs if he has pockets 99+, but i think there is a narrow range of pairs that he will have w/out raising preflop to so many limpers, specifically 99 or TT (with the outside chance of JJ).

A pair less than 88: your're up 90/10 (or 88/12 if 44 or 55)
54s or other OESD: your're up 70/30
Two overcards (say JTs): you're up 75/25
3 with an overcard (A3s): you're up 75/25
A4 (overcard+gut straight): you're up 73/27

I really think you're way ahead, and I bet he's looking to go broke with 55.
