NL50, like the sqeeuze?

I figured this would be pretty easy money. What do you guys think about it? The preflop raiser is playing 20/18, the rest are loose-passive (30/8) type of guys.

I don't think that squeezing an UTG raise is a good idea on NL50. Especially w/ so many donkeys in the hand, at least one is going to call.

I dont like squeezing an early position raise, I think that youre likely to get called by one of the passive players fairly often, and this is a bad hand to do it with if called imo.

i wouldnt be looking to squeeze at all at these stakes.

It's not about my hand really, as I am never getting to showdown, they either fold or they call and the hand is over.

I really tought I only needed to get the original raiser to fold, I think he folds alot of his range here (everything <QQ). The other players are idiots, but not so stupid that they call 24% of they're stacks with weak hands, right?

I think you're going to get at least one of them to come with you. With that many people in the pot, the squeeze play is extremely risky; it might work with only one caller, but with three? Ouch.

QFT. Even though he folds most time when called your up the creek without a paddle postpreflop.
