yes. how comfortable are you if you flop a bare ace or jack, regradless of what you have been representing

I hate being dominated or killing my odds for a set, so yea what they said. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

1 no, 2 is ok, i call and try to flop a set though, 3 is sexy. I love squeezing. [censored] is fun.

[SamuraiDuck]

Well I guess the answer would have to be speculative hands such as low pocket pairs and SC's? So when you're squeezing I suppose you have to pick your spots carefully, because lots of nits just cold call with JJ,TT,AK and AQ, right?

Hand 1 I prefer fold > raise > call. This hand is the one I most dislike.

Hand 2 is whatever. I think flopping a set multiway is fine, and I also think that taking it down PF or on the flop is fine too.

Hand 3 is okay. I pull the same move frequently.

1 is an easy fold.

I can play 99 OOP in a four-way raised pot postflop pretty easily most of the time ... if I don't have a set I'm done.

If the first raiser has a wide range, you are effectively playing the best hand preflop for set value.

Sure it's probably +EV, but raising is higher EV.

The only problem with hand 1 is if the UTG calls and then everyone else decides they have implied odds and come along for the ride. But I still think there's a good chance you take it down there.

[Nikademus]

I'm used to 10-handed, but I'll give them a go.

1) fold. out of position with a dominated hand and UTG has you out-stacked.
2) pretty much my standard play, although you can consider calling here.
3) I'd likely call here and hope for a monster. This play isn't in my game, though I'm thinking it should be.

In my experiences, squeezing is much more effective when there is only 2 people in the pot...
