Make it 240 preflop. Raise all in on the flop.

halp - why 240? What's the advantage of 240 vs. the 200 that he made it? (3Xbb + 2bb for limpers vs. 4xbb + 2bb for limpers)

This is an odd hand. Let's start by putting villain on a hand. To lead out in this spot, he has at least tp. He could have possibly hit top 2 as well. As for 9-10 or a set, I think alot of players at this limit c/r or slow play. And I think we can exclude QQ-KK here. My range for villain is QJ+(most realistic considering flop bet) J8-J7... with a slight possibility of a set. I give most credit to AJ-KJ. I think you should have shoved this flop too... as played I don't know whether to call or fold. In these spots, being so early, I'll take the chance alot of the time. If i'm ko'd, I'll just be happy that I got out early and not on the bubble, fire up another one, and repeat in that order for the next 6 hours.

[/ QUOTE ]In the very early stages levels 1 and 2 when stacks are still pretty deep I like 4xbb + 2 for limpers. I think that in the earlier stages you can get more value from loose callers who will call anyway, magnifying their mistake.

[/ QUOTE ]Meh, that's just personal preference, the 200 bet is the least questionable play.
