Re: small stakes-facing blind bets from button and SB, when I\'m UTG

I'm a little lost on the action. Did you limp? some other limpers and then button raises in the dark to $5? And then sb calls the $5, in the dark also?

If so, with a $25 stack I push. I make them...

Re: Dealer mucks winning hand but shoves him the pot anyway

Pocket 2's win. Dealer, with a little help, got it right.

Kudos to the other players for speaking up.

Re: Fold or no?

I raise more preflop, probably 600. I'm going to be out of position on the flop so I want to make sure I clear the field some.

Then I bet about 3/4 or more on the flop.

As played I can't fault...
