(555) Time to fold a +$EV spot again (?)

[Slim Pickens]

$525+30 9-max on Full Tilt, standard payouts. BB isn't a pro but seems to play pretty well. No specific reads on him. UTG is a solid winning regular and Button is a kinda-sucky break-even casual player.

Is there any hand anyone is folding for any reason?

I would fold the very bottom end hands because it evens out the stacks for you to push next hands, if you push against BB he's calling wide cause he's losing all FE and is solidly in last, folding gives you a very nice setup. I probably fold like bottom 10% or so

I agree with John, and I might actually be even a little tighter against certain opponents...70% sounds about right against good regs.

[pokerman777]

if i will be on bb i call you with top 70% here, thats mean that you must push 60% here.

I'd probably push ATCs. The stacks are really even and I could see even a fairly good player folding too much here.

i agree, people play inapprorpiately tight here a lot. I don't think I'd shove ATC but I'd probably only fold like bottom 10%-15%

One thing to keep in mind for you guys that are used to Stars is that there are no antes in Slim's hand...kinda makes a big difference IMO.

Very good point. Maybe I'll fold a few.
