looks better than calling a push from a villian who's yet to plan a single hand w/ A6o LOL


No reads?

I think folding here is pretty solid most of the time. You're not looking to push and get called for a coinflip. And if you do decide to call behind, you're putting in 20% of your stack, there's no guarantee the EP limpers are going to fold, and there's a very solid chance that an overcard will hit the flop. I think the fact that it's level 3 makes it easy not to get tangled in this kind of situation. Level 4... that's different.

Call and jam if the flop looks favorable. These players will call you after the flop with hands as bad as ace or king high.

The original raiser could have many hands at this level.

I'm folding, just not worth it even if it is barely +cEV to play.

Default Similar Spot

I had a similar situation earlier! Robjo is very very liberal with his all in calls.

ull Tilt Poker Game #1801675580: $6 + $0.50 Sit & Go (Turbo) (13353872), Table 1 - 100/200 - No Limit Hold'em - 10:38:08 ET - 2007/02/15
Seat 1: hondopest (2,910)
Seat 2: robjo46boy (3,235)
Seat 3: bburgert32 (1,640)
Seat 4: harmless27os (2,285)
Seat 5: Rocket_Chip (980)
Seat 9: drunkmf (2,450)
harmless27os posts the small blind of 100
Rocket_Chip posts the big blind of 200
The button is in seat #3
*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to harmless27os [Td Tc]
bburgert32: gh
drunkmf raises to 700
hondopest folds
robjo46boy calls 700
bburgert32 folds
harmless27os folds

I mean I could gain a lot of chips and control if I win this, if I push and get called. Especially because Seat 2 would even call with one over.

Thoughts??
