Stars, 275 players left from 2321, how do you play 99 here ?

[greenstack]

Hello,

I was getting garbage hands but I managed to grow up my stack in 4.500 just stealing and re-stealing for the last 15 min., mainly with all-ins with first-in vigorish and picking up the right spots.

When this hand arrived I wasn't sure about the best play, what do you think ? is an all-in totally foolish ?

Thank you,

I'd just call and see what happens after you. You are the chip leader at the table so if short stack pushes you may want to call but no point risking a bunch of chips without seing the flop first.

i would raise to 2200 myself and pray for the best.

2100 to go cuz your oop. ZJ seems right about the rest.

[BettyBoopAA]

bet the same amount as you would with AA

I raise/call here vs every stack.

I think you can get away with a 2.5bb raise here and go from there. It lets the bigger stacks know you have a hand and gets you away cheap if the re-pop. It also lets the smaller stacks know you have a hand but will be pot committed to call any of their pushes. T1500 to go...

i like this.

if you are gonna listen to ZJ, i think you should also take into consideration that they will have a looser range to push as they know you don't want to call them.

unless you have a read on a couple of tighter players, call anyone but rocks

[ZJ123]

meh, maybe yall are right, but i think it def. depends on reads on the big stack. If its a LAG 2+2er then im prolly calling, but if its a non-thinking player and/or average/tight player, then im mucking i think.
