personally i would not take the situation with the big mouths personally, what i would do here with 26,000 is check the big blind, you have plenty of time left.
Really? 26 BB's isn't
that deep.
anything from 10s above here id pop to about 6K to defend my blind,,,
Why can't we do the same with 99's? 2 serial limpers, and we have nines in the blind, good time to pump it up imo.
and below are good to see a flop with for free, if you hit your set, you are well disguised and likely to get action and payed off.
Set mining, fair enough, but I'd more likely be doing this if we were deeper and when we have more information about what range we are facing. Here, it seems like their range could be anything, so when we don't hit a flop, do we know where we are? Again, raise for the win.
If big cards come on the flop you know you can escape without having already commited extra unnecessary chips to the pot
So, our plan is... fold when a ten, J, Q, K, A comes? If it comes a low flop, that's probably right up 5-2 and 3-2's alley, so we fold again. Lol, only time we win is if hit a set...
Sorry if it appears like I am dismantling your post, it's a discussion forum, so I am just tackling your thought process.
