    villains playin a 25/10, and has attempted to steal my blind 20% of the time.

    is this a raise/ fold spot. or can i just make it 1100 or something, and still get away from it. Do i even need to battle with the chip leader with a weakish hand when i already have a comfortable stack......

    I hate A 10 and im a nit so i muck it.
    You only have 75 invested and your out of position.
    Maybe later in the tourney with antes etc. it would be a different story.

    is this n mtt? ahhh pretty sure 3 bet/fold is pretty bad here (lol i prob have done it tho) flattin n mayb playin a lil post flop can't b horrible. If it is a sng fold abuse shorter stacks. Most of the time when u flat here i find u r checked to a lot on the flop n can play accordingly keep pot small n such plus u have pos. In the end i guess i flat n play a pot in pos n try to keep it small glglglgl moe86 edit: oops u r out of pos hmmmm prob folding i guess it is close ehhh yea i fold final answer<----too nitty sometimes obv tho

    Hes not in position he is in the small blind and the button raised.

    and yeah is this a mtt or a sng.
    If its a sng i fold all day long and find a better spot vs short stacks. Why would you want to play a hadn out of position with the chip leader with a vulnerable hand. not a profitable play.
