Default Late position posters.

A fairly loose online $30/$60 game. The cutoff and hijack both post a big blind, one also posting a dead small blind, and of course the regular blinds post too. You are UTG with 68s. Does the extra money make this a call?

there's a whole lot of games at this level where it is nearly guaranteed that you will put in more than one bet preflop, and I think in the worse position this is still a fold. interesting question though.

I think you have to fold in a typical aggressive game.

I agree with this statement, even in this juicy pot odds situaiton, calling is only correct if the probabilty of a raise is relatively low.

I would definitely be calling here. Even if the dude on the button announced "I am going to raise" I would still call if I thought the pot would be contested 5+ ways.

i would be quite happy to limp UTG. if its raised, its likely to be a big multiway pot which is great for 86s.

Am I way off-base in thinking I may actually feel better about this hand if I knew that a raise is gonna be put in?

Am I craze thinking I might even raise here? Because honestly how often does a hand preflop get 3 betting when there is a poster. Wouldn't you rather be HUs in a large starting spot where you could limit down their opponents hands?
