I would not raise J9s preflop with a short stacked UTG limper because you do not have odds to draw unless you hit a monster flop like this one.

I probably just shove the flop since he is so short but it is impossible to make a mistake with such a big draw.

If you folded to his shove you should be taken out back and shot.

Strait = a body of water. Straight = not curved, 5 cards in poker that are in numerical order.

Why did you post results? Read the FAQ sticky

Since there is a short stack that already limped in I would fold this hand. There is a good chance he will call/shove most raises here dont get involved dwith a hand unless you plan to go all the way with it.
