If I play I need to push and I don't want to play for my stack here.

You absolutely cannot push here with this many enemy. My first gut reaction was to raise enough to put shortie all in and fold to heavy action back to me. Again, shorty's coming along but against his range of hands I don't feel terrible. The only problem is that I've put 30% of my stack at risk. Seems like quite a leap.

I know, that's why i said I wouldn't do it. This spot sucks. None of your choices are very appealing. I vote for fold, but in the heat of battle I'm not sure what I would do.

What did you do and what happened?

Yeah I know you were basically advocating a fold. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] I wasn't calling you out at all. Thanks for posting.

And I'm just waiting to see if Brunson has anymore pearls of wisdom.

Hey Brunson here.

Fold preflop donkey. NH. My guess is that you called the $15 without odds and hit the flush, only to get crushed by a higher flush. Nice call, gg. HOH vol 1&2 would be a good starting point for you. GL!

You had me at 'fold preflop'. Please don't change. You are truly a marvel. All the name calling and talking down your nose is righteous. Take off your shirt immediately and 'pose down' in the nearest mirror. You've earned it!

Seriously, anyone reading this thread fold this hand for $2 preflop?
