PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (4 handed) pokerhand.org hand converter (http://www.pokerhand.org)

Hero ($36.20)
SB ($14.60)
BB ($25)
UTG ($5.95)

Preflop: Hero is Button with A/images/graemlins/heart.gif, K/images/graemlins/heart.gif.
UTG calls $0.25, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $1.25</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB calls $1, UTG calls $1.

Flop: ($3.85) 7/images/graemlins/club.gif, 8/images/graemlins/club.gif, K/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $4.7 (All-In)</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $9.4</font>

the call itself is a nobrainer. do i want to try to isolate here ? minraise seemed like an easy way to get away from the hand if BB pushed. in hindsight it may not of been the best route. thoughts ?

i think too likely a chance there is a flush behind you/ you are already beat by UTG. call?

raising the all in is unnecessary here ... because you pretty much have to fold anyways if the BB gets involved...

reason for this is UTG already moved all in, and if you call behind, BB has to have a hand that has showdown value to play ... if he were to play here id expect him to have a strong hand, so raising only puts more dead money in the pot. just call, and if BB stays in, check/fold

Minraising is a horrible idea. Push or call. I like calling more, because if BB is trying a c/r he's not getting our stack.
