Move allin, your hand is too strong and your opponents raise and position is too weak.

1) Easy push, he could be raising anything and you don't want to call and see overcards on the flop, OOP.

2) Fold, then I would push next time it's folded to you with just about anything.

3) Ehhh, I probably pass on this. If it was your standard 3X BB T90 raise, I'd call, but 250 pretty huge and you can pick some better spots.

4) I would fold. You're only move is really to push here and it's still way early for getting into coin flips (and possibly crushed).

5) Fine, you took your shot and were called twice. I would have bet a little less to try and take it down or just checked to try to hit the str8.

6) A tough one, but I give UTG respect and fold. Another case of too early to be taking coin flips or taking on JJ or better and an early exit.

1-4 what curtains said [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

5. You have nothing on the flop, the pot isnt very big and you have 14bb. I see no reason to try to bluff into 3 people here.

6. Fold

1) Push. He's stealing blinds, he's raising with any 2, you have him covered and are ahead most of the time.

2) Fold. He'll only need 370 to call your push, so he's not folding. You will have to improve most of the time to win this.

3) Fold. UTG+1 is way over betting, and AQs is not worth pushing this early.

4) Fold. You are not getting the correct odds to call for set value in level 1.

5) Fold. One of those guys has KJ.

6) Fold. By the looks of the chip stacks, this is a loose table and I think you will find a better spot. Plus the fact that this is not going to be heads-up. BB is also calling this and maybe even SB. Be patient.

1 = Easy push.

2 = It may seem like a fold, but folding down to 3x BB isn't an ideal spot. I think stop and go would work very well at the donkish level you are playing at. Still, I suppose I fold, and pushing is pretty bad. But stop and go = FE, and FE is awesome here.

3) Unless Villain is insanely bad at poker, and you know it, fold.

4) Read above. I limp preflop.

5) Betting at this flop against 4 opponents is dumb. Check, both on the flop and turn.

6) W/O reads, I fold.

Default Re: Some question hands from the 22\'s

If you have any reads on any of these players, it would be helpful to know. But without any additional info, here's my take on the hands:

1. push - no letting the shorty button steal from you when you have a real hand. if he has a hand too and calls you, well, bully for him.

2. you gotta fold this - i'm assuming that you'll be left with around 3xBB after your SB, which is enough to wait a few hands to get a better starting hand. even if you push, it would be astonishing if the UTG folds, and you probably don't even have a 40% chance of winning the hand. save your chips and take your chances with another hand.

3. fold without a second thought. it is way too early to be playing huge pots like this against another big stack with a hand that is easily dominated. now if you had seen UTG + 1 push some crappy hands before, it's another story, but i'd still fold.

4. fold. i don't like your PF raise becuase it gets you into these situations. any big re-raise like that you have to fold to, and then you lose some chips and miss out on your chance to hit a set for cheap. in early or mid-position, this is a limp for me in the early levels. but since you PF raised and were re-raised, I can't imagine that you're better than a flip here, and probably dominated out of position - gotta fold it.

5. this looks fine to me, but i might bet a little less on the flop (200 or so), just to save myself some chips that i can later use to take another stab at the pot on the turn if i want.

6. i don't want to take a flip so early or see villian fip over an overpair to my 10s, so i fold it here. you'll have other spots to get your chips in the middle.
