Flop: (275) 9♥ 6♠ K♠ (2 Players)
UTG bets 100, UTG+1 raises to 200, UTG raises to 500, UTG+1 folds

Results: 675 Pot
UTG mucked and WON 675 (+375 NET)

Starting hand chart told me to fold, and I didn't fell like risking, especially because I experienced that early position minraises usually mean really strong hands. Was it a good decision?

I raise to 300 and fold if he comes over the top...

min raises from early position don't mean monsters too often and if he flat calls you have position so I see nothing wrong with a re-raise here.

With 2 already in the pot you do get the implied odds to call and play your TT on set value...

Hi all,

I prefer a fold here, but if we were on the BU I don't mind calling it. Definitely early on in your career a fold is more optimal with your stack size as it will keep you away from those tough postflop situations.
