1. No. With no reads, I'd not get involved with a highly potentially dominated hand against an UTG raiser.

2. Not bad, though I suspect this is neutral to just calling and playing for set value.

3. Absolutely. That's my play very often, and you'll grab that dead money happily.

I agree with carnival. I REALLY hate the second hand because you kill implied odds for a set.

In my experiences, squeezing is much more effective when there is only 2 people in the pot, ex. UTG raises, Button calls, We 3bet in the BB.

I just think that in the last 2, especially, it would be better to call and play a multiway pot. Just my opinion.

Edit: Yes, you are getting more dead money in the pot but with these last 2 hands I would rather see a flop.

Hand 1 is the only one I don't like. If called you are in a tough spot if you don't hit the flop hard...

In hand 1 are you CBetting ANY flop?

Hand 2 and 3 are great especially with all the dead money.

1) Bad. Against 2 early raisers. Plus theirs no such thing as a good flop against a caller. Bad reverse implied odds. Might as well do it, then with any two cards.

2) fine. but calling is proably just as +EV.

3) sexy.
