Like? Caller is loose...but are there too many people behind me to make a move like this?

Its called a 45suited [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] pretty standard in my playbook too.

I dont mind this. I would be worried about the players yet to act, but you only have around 8bbs here, so I dont mind doing this.

how else would you play this?? 99 is too much to give up here.
