Standard. Getting it in seems fine. I can't imagine how you're beat here, he can't possibly have T9 more then a handful of times you're in this spot.

[FireStorm]

Oh and BTW, please God don't raise preflop, in live 5/5 this is simply idiotic. Are we trying to get blown off our hand preflop by someone's overpair we want to stack? Any particular reason we should make it $25 and then stick it in the muck when it gets three bet to $100?

[Praetor]

because it wont get 3 bet very often

[FireStorm]

This is debatable. At some live games, you will probably get 3 bet 10% of the time. At others, it will be constant. Given that OP just sat down, I'd err on the side of caution and assume that popping it UTG in 5/5 live will lead to getting repopped.

[Praetor]

why the hell would you assume that

[DrMagic]

wtf firestorm? Not raising pf in a live game seems stupid. Most live games I've ever played in are really passive, almost no-one 3-bets.
