Yes. You're very likely either an 11-10 favorite or a 4-1 dog. The pot is only offering you very good odds. You still have a big stack left. You were hoping to see a cheap flop. Didn't work out. Next hand.

Machine,

I think you have to fold here...I limp those small pocket pairs in level 1 and 2 for set value and that is all. In this spot you shouldnt be limping in for that much of your stack especially with a lot of desperate players behind you (people with less than 10BB) you know they are going to be pushing a wide range into you here.

99 or TT here I raise to 600 anything less I fold...

I know that people in this forum are not big fans of M, but it might be useful here. You've got an M or less then 7. I think that means that you don't have the wiggle room to limp (or play any slow-developing hands). Seems like you're either pushing or folding--with pushing seeming a bit sketching given the number of people to act after you.

I would make a raise here a little less than 3x BB - probably 500 or so. This also depends on the table - if they are very aggressive I either push or fold (almost always fold if I have greater than 10BB).
