    This was the first hand rps5000 played.
    First hand I played.
    The fold felt spewy to me, but his range seemed to have me in trouble.
    What should I have done?

  2. A little re-raise preflop (to 200 or so) might've helped you figure out where you stood earlier in the hand, and for fewer chips. With Ks or Qs, he's likely to re-pop it huge there and Js are an easy fold.

    I like the call with Js, but the unfortunate thing about that is seeing a J-friendly flop and having to raise a 150 bet (instead of 70) to find out where you stand; making your chip-loss greater.
  3. you have to call 900 to win about 1900.... you cant fold the flop u have an over pair to a draw heavey board getting 2 to 1..... preflop you should have raised to 250ish and if reraised you have to get it in for 65ish bbs.... i think folding this hand on the flop or preflop is terrible and way too tight based on your stack and the fact that this is early on in the tournament
