I don't think I'd fold TPTK for 40bbs basically ever

[AlienBoy]

Okay - do you call or push? Do you think there's *any* fold equity here? I'm pot committed on the flop if I call, so it's really push or fold, calling is out of the question IMO.

I don't know if making it $12 preflop is enough in this game, but if its standard then thats fine. I probably call flop and shove the turn to give him a hance to fire another barrel if he has air, I doubt you have any FE against anything that isn't air on the flop, but if he is bluffing give him one more chance to continue.

Don't forget that mp3 is still in the hand. You cant call and allow him to draw cheaply so its gotta be shove or fold. With the shallow stacks I definetly shove.

Thanks for the comments.

I shoved of course. Villain has J9o for a flopped straight. Puke.

P.s.: Raise was based on 3xBB + 1BB for limper, which is stronger than nearly all other players in these live NL games in Los Angeles.
