This is only maybe 10 hands into my session, so I dont have a read on villain, never seen him before, havent noticed if hes played any hands since I've been here, if so he hasnt showed down and theres been no big pots.

Folds to Hero who opens to $10 from HJ w ATs. I normally open to $15, but so far since I've been at the table I've seen a couple $15 opens get folded out and $10 get at least a call so I just go w $10 this time.

Folds to villain in BB who jams for $85.

Unknown, no reads, do you make this call or fold?

I think this is an easy fold.

BB doesn’t have very much incentive to jam with only one player in the hand and only having to call $7 to see a flop. He has so many hands in his range that dominate you and very few that you are in good shape against.

Edit: sorry thought this was 2/5 for a second

He's probably got something like 66+, ATs+, AQo.
And maybe some KQs.
If you're getting odds vs that range, call. If not, fold.

I would just fold, at best you're flipping vs med. PP's. All of his Ax hands crush you.

Mostly fold, but I can see a call if you have a big enough stack and want a certain image

I open limp the HJ but that's my style.

And I would now fold. Not a good spot to mostly be in a flipping-at-best versus crushed-at-worse scenario with very little dead money.

I would fold. Mostly flipping sometimes you are dominated and probably super rare you're dominating any hand.

I called in game, but then when I was thinking about it later I came to the same conclusion as you guys that why am I calling to at best be in a flip, doesnt really make sense.

What are we calling off here, zero reads and a <30bb shove? AK, AQs? QQ+?
