Funny raise. There was a post in the HSMTT forum last week about Pearljammer, and how he raises like 2.25x and such. Anyway, i digress.

I fight with my roommate about this spot all the time. My default is to not call raises OOP. I mean, your hand sucks, and I don't think you're going to feel alright proceeding post-flop unless you hit 2 pair or better, or you're some ninja who's gonna outplay this guy in a raised pot OOP.

On the other hand, you're pretty deep, are getting great odds, and have a pretty well concealed hand.

I guess I'm not answering your question. I just hate calling raises OOP and then c/fing the flop. It makes me feel like a bitch.

he has 10k behind, there's 6k in the pot

i think it's a fold, and that's what i did, but just fishing for input (like yours btw.. thx)

Re: FT 20/180
 

I didn't even look at his stack, just yours--oops.

This is an easy fold.

Re: FT 20/180

U posted this hand in the hope that one of us could explain UTG+1's raise?
