Mike and I just finished our session review, and we were a bit iffy on a couple hands. We both play a similar style, so it's probably best to get some input from a bunch of different styles. Just assume no reads on these, as they are pretty general questions.

Hand 1:

Poker Stars - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.50/$1 Blinds - 9 Players

SB: $163.05
BB: $20.00
UTG: $82.60
UTG+1: $97.45
MP1: $181.65
MP2: $109.65
MP3: $104.45
CO: $85.00
Hero (BTN): $111.95

Preflop: Hero is dealt 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (9 Players)
UTG folds, UTG+1 calls $1.00, 4 folds, Hero (BTN) ???

I think an argument can be made for all three options here.


Hand 2:

Ultimate Bet - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.50/$1 Blinds - 9 Players

SB: $14.85
BB: $111.35
UTG: $99.10
UTG+1: $80.55
MP1: $109.50
MP2: $54.65
MP3: $106.00
Hero (CO): $100.00
BTN: $230.05

Preflop: Hero is dealt Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (9 Players)
UTG raises to $3.50, 4 folds, Hero (CO) ???

Folding seems weak. 3bet or cold call the UTG raiser?
