sherman, are you raising with 44 here? 33? fwiw, i'm fine with the fold.

??? No. I'd probably raise 77 1/2 of the time and fold 77 1/2 of the time. 88+ I raise. Below 88 I straddle to 600-750.

Shameless FPS, but yeah, at a decently aggro table, it's a fold. Otherwise, pairs are too valuable to openmuck in tournament situations.

Table reads would be nice.

Normally this is a fold for me but if the table is playing passive p/f I dont mind a call for set value. If there is a normal raise (ie 3-4x the blinds)after your call the stacks are deep enough to call IF you think you will double through if you hit a set. Even in that scenario I think that it is still 50/50 under those circumstances.

A fold is fine.
