no way i fold this ... unless u have a read of this player being very tight. AA and TT have u beat but he limped and smooth called your PF raise. I would personally raise him all in for his last $6 or so. I think he has u on like AK and he has TPTK

Be glad he doesn't have more behind him and you have a REAL tough decision. This one is easy, he only has $1.50 behind him, just put him all in.

You're risking $10.50 to win $41.25; if your hand is best just 20% of the time, you have a +EV push here.

You're ahead of Tx, /images/graemlins/heart.gif /images/graemlins/heart.gif, JJ, QQ, random weaker pocket pairs, and air.

You're behind 3x, TT, 22, and AA.

Considering that this is an incredibly odd way to play any hand that you beat, I'd say this is an extremely +EV push: I'd say you're ahead of your opponent well over 50% of the time here.

Not a big deal but raise more preflop OOP.

On the turn, zomg push for reasons pokey identified.

You put in half your stack and then fold your overpair on the turn to a donk? I don't get it.

if you don't push here, don't play SH

Thanx for the advice. I'm really having problems with big pairs turning overpairs. Think (and know) it's a big leak in my game.

Just pushed 2 overpairs in common situations and stacked the villain twice. I love you guys.

If you dont want to shove this turn then you shouldnt bet it in the first place, seeing how short he is.
