don't open limp from the cut-ff, especially with your stack size. Folding preflop is probably bets, other wise raise. On the flop Either shove or put most of your stack in.

You shouldn't be c-betting this flop against two players. It just won't get through often enough and once you've been called why don't you just give up the pot on the turn?

I'd call here. When I think of the standard or more common lines taken by all the hands I'm worried about none of them would normally be played like this. I think you're most like up against AK or a small pair.

QT with 27BBs against 2 player showing strength both in early position? How can this be anything but a fold? Thinking you will only be called by QQ+ is crazy and UTGs range is probably JJ+ and AK anyway.

Without notes on the villain I would fold but I think I'm almost getting to the stage where I wouldn't as lately a lot players are using these small turn raises to represent a stronger hand than they have, or they are morons with JQs who chase overcards and backdoor draws.

Hi Diamond. Please read the HH accurately before posting m8 Wink.

Whoops sorry. I'm HH dislexic. Not the first time I've done this here. Got to use HH convertor or I'll probably do it again.

you reraise because he's shown strength and may like to give you more money. Calling and allowing diamond or 6/J to fall either kills your action or completes his hand.

BTW I don't like the weak lead. Check raising is better because you're hand will look more like a draw and will often induce a shove from an overpair. A bet 3-bet with theses stack sizes would stink of a set and make it easier for over-pairs to fold.

Shove preflop and increase your stack by over 30% when they both fold. Making it 9K more makes no sense. If you get called are you check folding every flop you miss having committed almost 50% of your stack?

Usually when the pot gets 3 bet and subsequently 4-bet on the flop - with one player having over half his stack in the middle - all the chips fly in. This hand is a first for me.

The only reason to call preflop is if you're on a particularly loose fishy table, otherwise pump it to $45-50 or fold. Either would be fine. Cold calling preflop is most likely the worst of your options.

Postflop: why raise the flop? Just call.

As played the villain looks a lot like having 22/88.

I was going to say shove but then saw that you have an above average stack close to the money so I would fold preflop. Shoving with AJ from this position is probably only a break even play in terms of chip equity, and negative equity if the table is playing very tight.  I'd probably shove 2 seats closer to the button though.

Making a standard raise when you have 10BBs or less is just silly. You should always just shove or pass there.

Preflop is horrible. It's not profitable to call off over 10% of your stack OOP with this hand. There's just no getting away from that.

Postflop if you're willing to go broke then you should definitely consider open shoving. This is so much better than check-calling because you immediately make it unprofitable for anyone to call with a flush or straight draw and every time you take it down you increase your stack by almost 50%.

The villain plays the hand very well.

lol@advice to limp in with this hand.

Its an easy shove there. Your hand is ahead of most players reraising rainge.

lol! What a ridiculous all-in. Unless you have history on this guy you have to always fold. Such a huge all in will be the nuts or close to it all to often. As a bonus he saves you a fortune when you can throw away KK.
