Taking a shot at the 2-5 game this afternoon. . .

Results to follow.

Game has just opened up in the past hour, and so far I'm confident that I'm one of the most solid players at the table. There's a good willingness to gamble though; I've seen three all-in's in my first couple of orbits.

Hand 1:

I sat down with 300 and after rake and a couple of blinds I'm down to 280.

Hero is in MP with 5 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

1 call in EP
Hero raises to 25.

Villain calls in LP.

Blinds fold.

Flop (~57): Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

I lead for 35, villain raises to 70, Hero . . . ??

OK, folding preflop here obviously wouldn't have been bad, but I have a tight image at the moment and like to mix it up. I also don't mind conveying a donkish image in the first hour or so at the table.

Advice in this spot??
