Fold....wild chief is the only player that cannot enter a pot without getting all his chips in......u can afford to raise/fold......wouldn't put my own chips in until shortstacked or sure i was ahead.....and because your going to fold these nines anyway to a reraise u should only raise 3 times the bb or less

call all day play for the win

NOT THIS ...

This is a muck with your 99...you really want to race the only person that can bust you right here?...what are you really thinking he has?...best case scenario is a big ace race...unless you run like Usain Bolt, instafold please and don't think twice...you'll get better spots later...

fold

wow cant take constructive criticism, you knocked my logic and obviously didn't read my response at all for asking what is the best case scenario, you see 33-88 sooooooooooo much here. This is a huge leak in your game, im never never never folding 99 5 handed to an overlimp shove.

to the OP, I play it the exact same way, raise size is good, snap call, fade the 2 outer

i don't play these often anymore, but we're snap folding 99 5-handed to an overlimp/shove?

i'm pretty sure i think for a bit, but call.

lol @ this thread. im turbo clicking where the call button pops up as soon as i jack it up. if this wasn't my plan then i prob limp behind, set, and rake.

cliff notes: raise folding is weak

am i the only one who snap calls this? its 5 handed and i dont think a guys gonna limp 1010+ after someone already limped so im fairly confident worst case scenario your flipping as a slight favorite getting pretty good odds...ur raise looks like a squeeze attempt lookin to pick up a pot on the bubble and ur range is fairly wide depending on how aggressivly u had been playing and then i think the reshove range can be just as wide like 22+, a5+, k10+ ive seen all of these in 4.40s

Lemme be clear; I'm only folding for monetary expected value. You can't bust in front of the other guy. But sloth has this absolutely right: you have to have a gameplan before you raise. If you would fold to his shove, you might as well limp behind. The last thing you want to do is stick out 15% of stack and then have no idea if you're losing value by folding or losing the tourney by calling.

I feel like i ask this in every 2nd thread, but reads?

Has he been active, dominating the FT bubble, done this before, been really weak-tight, PT stats, anything??

Readless i snapcall here, his range primarily consists of mid PPs (all of which we dominate) and connected/semi-connected paint. It is not a good spot to look for a limp-shove w a big hand, as there is only one stack behind that is desperate.

I dont think I have ever seen QQ+ here, who wants to play these at least 3 way on the FT bubble?!

I timebanked and called. He showed QQ. GG.

Funny - plan had been to fold to original raiser (who had been tightish) and I hadn't seen this guy overlimp/reraise. He had been overlimping weak, so I wanted to take the pot preflop.

Djk - The guy limping loose was the only read I had. He hadn't limp/reraised me, but I had popped his limps before (always with raise worthy hands, but it had to look fishy to him).
