    so this hand came up and i would like to hear peoples thoughts about the hand. plz give well thought out responses not like, "stupid fold donk" if u think its a bad fold then plz explain.
    some things i was thinking about during this hand.
    1. donaldtrump has played very very few hands.
    2. pbr has also been playing somewhat tight.
    3. i put pbr on a very small range to reshove here. AK and 1010+
    4. i can see pbr shoving AK, 10 10, J J
    5. pbr probably raises with qq, kk , aa instead of shoving.
    6. im in a bad spot and im pretty much getting squeezed.
    7. if i call and donald snap calls i will feel like a moron.
    8. also what about my tourney life? should i go out to what is a coinflip at best at such an early level?

    so what do u guys think?? all in or fold? i will post results later.

    "5. pbr probably raises with qq, kk , aa instead of shoving."

    I shove these hands alot of times because people think that.

    I don't think your fold is bad. Your range for me is pretty dead on.
