No reason to think these guys were push junkies, good fold?

I gotta think you're up against at least one pocket pair, possibly one that strongly hurts your outs like AA or KK. Calling isn't horrible but you'd be very lucky to see AQ/AJ and below here and you're at best a toss up against most of the rest of their ranges. Depends on what you think of MP as well, because if you at least have *him* beat you're not in as bad of a spot.

Thanks. Thats what I thought (up against at least one pair that is, possibly dominated).

SB had QTo
MP had QQ

I think at 10NL calling here would be ok. You do see TT+ and AQ doing this and there's a heap of money in the pot already. At 25NL and 50NL i think this is a definite fold but people tend to fall in love with pocket pairs at 10NL.

Either way i think it's marginal so don't worry about it too much. Realistically it's only avery minor the EV difference either way.
