Stars 100k busto hand...

UTG is playing a lag style and had been a roller coaster as far as chips go (~4k) blinds 25-50 raises minimum, I call in utg+1 w/ A9os (~1.9k) SB calls (~1.1k). Flop 962 rainbow. UTG bets roughly 250, I call (?) SB pushes in, UTG calls...

Hero?

9 handed and you called an utg minraise with A9o. Thats so bad.

What are you looking to beat here? Pretty sure they dont both have K9 or something.

I know the play is sketchy on all levels, I'm disgusted with the way I play the hand... so obviously calling pre was bad, I should have just waited, and after the Reraise and call I was pissed for even calling in that situation.

But given the action and the effective stack size left over should this be an easy fold. Just trying to fix leaks.

fold pf. the reason your fold this is to avoid these kind of situations where you can't and dont know where you are.

well calling pre is a huge one. When you call utg+1, you're likely to trigger a string of calls. Then you end up playing a crap hand with terrible position. It's just no good at all.

Fair enough. Thanks for the criticism.

As played, how often do you think your ahead. Against either player?

Probably ahead of SB. Doubt it with UTG, but I'd have to be there.
