This is a bit of a hypothetical question tbh as the stacks at the time made life easy.

5 5 dc, I've got about £375. I cover everyone else in the pot.

I've got 

6 players to the flop sees 

I'm last to act and there's 3 all ins before it gets to me. It's only £200 to call so obviously it's an easy decision in this instance.

The question though is what if we were deeper? What would the play be if we were sat on £1k and there were a couple in there with similar stacks throwing a lot of chips in to the pot?

Can we ever fold the nuts here given that a low is likely and our high is vulnerable?

The flop is obviously nice but we've got no low draw at all.

Not really a "rainbow" flop, wouldn't most good DC players pass on that flop for 200?...then again you're presumably playing Nott's so could be up against 56? Smiley
