About LinkBacksdo i re-raise all-in here or wait for an opportunity to be 1st into the pot.
MP has been playing tightish. his bet size made me think it was a blind steal attempt.
i am thinking raising all-in may either steal his raise or he will call and i have 2 live cards.
in hindsight i think i gave him too much credit and he is raising for value.
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (5 handed) converter
SB (t1410)
Hero (t1065)
UTG (t7200)
MP (t2500)
Button (t1325)
Preflop: Hero is BB with,
.
1 fold, MP raises to t350, Hero????

well, I'm not a great NL player, but if you raise AI, he's probably going to call regardless of his cards. That'll put ~1565(if my math is correct) in the pot and he's just got to call 700 more. That's 2:1 on his money and there aren't too many hands you could have against his possible hands that would make folding a good move. Even AKo against 72o is a 2:1 favorite.
You still have 10bb left, I would wait.Trons

i feel that 10 BBs is not a lot short handed. they come around fast and cost 150 a round.
you are right that he theoretically should call.

I dont think QT is enough of a hand. AT, most pairs, maybe KQ or KJ, but I think you can afford to wait.

He's got the initiative, he's going to call.
I'd fold.

Low M play, the key is getting that 1st in vig. Let him steal if thats what he is doing. Wait for a better spot.

I watched a video made by Tom McEvoy, where he was in a similar situation with QJo. He said it's best to call in this spot and save yourself some chips.

Yeah, I would fold. I typically don't take chances like that until in the money or I am really short stacked.
