Where am I? I hadnt played a hand yet, definitely hadnt raised a pot and so assume people realise I'm playing tight. The only thing is the table as a hole have been playing pretty loose and fast. Matey boy in first position, had no notes on him and the guy who made the call was pretty loose.

Should I call, fold or reraise. I know theres not much informatino but any advice would be good.

I think I would be tempted to stick them all in here....basically more to do with the position you have - you are in a good place to execute a squeeze play on player 2 - which means that unless he has the stone cold nuts he would be in a difficult place to call your bet, not knowing what player 3 is going to do.

If he folds you find yourself in a showdown with the loose player, with a decent hand. not a bad place to be IMHO.

You need to raise but you can't really do much without commiting yourself. I think you are ahead here but you are probably up against a draw and A-x. The BB's min raise has me worried but i think you should go all in to take away your positional disadvantage. He may have a very strong hand but he may have raised to see if you were semi-bluffing with the flush draw.

i am tempted to fold here and put it down to wrong time wrong place knowing i can get a better place to put my money in

there is already a made staight out there and a flush draw you have bottom 2 pair

i say sometimes its doesnt hurt to fold the LEADING hand

Nice analysis. I lumped it all in hoping to push people off hands, hoping to be honest that I didnt get called. The re-raiser called me instantly and the caller thought for a while. The longer he thought, the more i put the raiser on AQ and ahead of me. The caller finally folded and the rest of the hand is below. To be honest I think it was poor play long term, especially if it was at a higher level against a better opponent. Like who calls from first position with A9o??
