Hello Bordzter,

could you remove the results next time you post a sample hand? Thank you.

As played, you do not know what Mp1 will do so therefore I let this one go because basic SSS says that whenever you are 1) in a multiway pot and 2) did not hit something or have like QQ/JJ on a Ace board or King board , a SSS player should give up his hand.

Therefore I play check/fold here on the Flop.

But SSS also says that if the pot is more than twice your stack you should go in anyway. Or doens't that apply when somebody else bets?

When it is checked up to you, you have to apply this rules.

If someone bets in front of you, it's a whole different story

Um, I think according to the articles...

"You push all-in in any case, no matter what your opponents do."

...this applies to the fact you are the preflop aggressor and you have less then half the pot left in your stack.

Also in most cases when this happens you are pot commited and have too good odds with all the hands you raised preflop imo.
