I think it's a fold. You'll never know where you stand vs all of these very strong ranges on ANY kind of flop.

ship or fold spot imo

i also feel that a fold is slightly better.

Hi,

I think fold seems weak (especially since you´re not in heads up pot) and like either SB/BU/UTG+2 has worse Ax hand). If you think BU is light then shove should be fine- you at least all 5 cards and don´t have to c/f flop 2/3 of times. I would most of the times call (without any history and reads) to play postflop. You don´t have to get always on Axx, Kxx boards and can make your decisions based at CO aggression and other player actions. With AQ and worse hands I would likely folded.

best regards,

would also like veriz opinion.

i think i can't call because... it's going to be really tough. like you said, we shouldn't have to always ship Axx and Kxx, so...

Hello Tomaloc,

Fold it, SB flat may be a solid hand there and even a trap. The only options here are Shove with the dead money in the pot or just fold. We choose fold.

Best Regards.

since i'm a spewy nit i just shipped for the thrills.

... Hero raises to $40.75 all in, BTN tanks, tanks, tanks, tanks, fold, SB tanks, tanks, tanks, tanks, fold, UTG+2 calls $13.50 all in

Flop: ($42.24) 2 :club: 3 :club: J :club: (2 players - 2 are all in)

Turn: ($42.24) 7 :heart: (2 players - 2 are all in)

River: ($42.24) 4 :diamond: (2 players - 2 are all in)

Final Pot: $42.24
UTG+2 shows 5 :diamond: A :diamond: (a straight, Ace to Five)
Hero mucks K :club: A :heart:
UTG+2 wins $40.34
(Rake: $1.90)

i guess both btn and sb folded QQ/AK. then i just have to learn how to flop better :f_cry:
