  2. fold, you're not beating much and even if he has a flush draw with 2 overcards he's even money with you right now.

    and by fold i mean call the raise and see if you can pull off a 9 or a queen and see what happens from there.
  3. Good fold, he/she was pretty much pot commited after that reraise; and you wouldn't have won a big pot if you did hit big on the turn/river.

    You're probably beat here reguardless...
  4. Fold pre-flop. Especially at 25NL where you're going to see a lot of min. raises. You're just going to bleed chips this way. Not to mention that it puts you in situations like this that are just unnecessary -- it's micro limits, don't make things harder on yourself than they need to be.
  5. ty for the responses really fold there getting over 6 to 1 tho?

  6. You are actually getting over 9 to 1 and I disagree, I think you need to call here preflop.

    I think you could lead this flop for about $2 depending on what you know about the original raiser's preflop tendencies (his approximate preflop raise %), if you lead you would have to call a shove from the shortstack but could fold to a raise from any of the other stacks. If you get called you would have to evaluate the turn card and play from there.

    Just another line to think about.
