i think pushing or folding are both okay, its close here. if BB is an idiot, he will probably come over the top with a monster like AA/KK, but smooth call with two big cards or a small PP. if BB were a good player, i am folding this.

I spent the max time, so I also thought it was close. I won't say what I did or what the result was so that this isn't just the two of us having what might as well be a PM conversation. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I fold because BB's just call (compared to a push) is so suspicious.

F-O-L-D.

Are you hoping one has 99 and the other has TT? I think the best case scenario is that you are a coinflip, and chances are probably close to 50% that one has you dominated. I've lost too many buy-ins with JJ, QQ and even KK in this exact situation. KK would be an autopush -- I think hard about QQ but probably fold depending on how much of a gambling mood I'm in.

Yeah, I didn't like the smooth call either since if I had a hand like AQ, I would probably muck, first of all, but if I wanted to play it I would push to isolate. So, I folded. And he had AQ, and the original raiser had AK and they got no improvement and I would have taken a big pot. But I agree the best move is to fold. Looks like I am most likely dominated.
