Default Re: Another all in play

mstram, i realize this is the beginner's forum...

but the A3 preflop call is a huge error. all-in or fold. strong preference for fold.

then, you have two pairs and very small stack. no way i'd fold that even with a much, much bigger stack.

i don't think people mind answering your hand histories, but i think we'd like to think there is some basic book/internet learning going on at same time....

basically 10X big blind is all-in or fold unless you have very big hand and want to get your opponents whole stack and worry everyone will fold to your action. so you'd only limp pre=flop to reraise all-in later preflop or go all-in on flop.

and in general i'd say two pair is probably good for 40-50 BB's pre-flop. if not much more. depends on flop... but i'm all over getting my $$$$ in in this spot.
