I hate these kinds of hands. I usually fold low pocket pairs here to a raise, because if I get called, it's either a flipper or I'm crushed.

I guess it would depend on how the button was playing too.

I definitely would not fold 66 here against a single raise and blinds this large. Time to take a small edge to try and double up and go for first.

Do you make this same play if you are on the bubble in a similar chip situation or is this reserved for when you are ITM? Also, is this a standard play or was it based on a read? Finally, do you do this with 22 here? What about KJo? Trying to improve this part of my game - defending poorly against these small raises is hurting my game.

I'm loving these posts by the way.

Pretty easy re-raise for me three-handed with 6xBB.

This is very, very standard. Plus lucky rasta's a laggy fish.
