Nine players.I'm first to act and limp with a j off. Not too much raising at the table. I have 800 in chips. Four players limp. Flop a j 2 rainbow. Small blind all in for 240. Big blind calls with 250 behind. Small blind on third buy in and running bad. Big blind regular and good player. My action?

I am serious with this post. Remeber I had 5 invested and good player called with 250 behind. I need more input and I will give results. What range of hands do you put the caller on here?

AK, AQ, AJ, AT, A2, J2, 22. I think you beat a lot of those hands.

I'm probably more conservative, but I think the range here is only AK, AJ, A2, J2, 22. I wouldn't give any credit for JJ checking after 4 limpers, plus 2 Js are out.

AK - 8 ways
AJ - 4 ways
A2 - 6 ways
J2 - 6 ways
22 - 6 ways

I would shove here, he's probably going to call with a lot of hands that are losing.

Personally, I'd put SB on Ax, and BB on A2/J2

Stick it in here every time without reads and be happy about it. Take note that maybe he overshoves with monsters.

i dont call. why do want to invest that money where is no pot given yet. i think most of the time the guy who plays that sick line he gonna show u 22! Why does he move all in? to steal that 25 bucks? I think you only does that with j2 or 22. And i dont wanna risk that here. good post anyway.

this is what poker pappy pm'ed me:

What is that supposed to mean? I made a mistake in putting him all in or I lost 500 on a 5 dollar limp? How would you play the hand? Nice post.
You must be a great player.

if you don't know what i'm talking about... go to the small stakes forums and read up... makes me as a live player look bad

ironically the hand is fairly interesting... the point is how much you have invested so far should not be a thought in your head

I did not think about what I had invested at the time. That is why I shoved. About the 5 invested, it was my after thought after I lost.

I'm sorry onlinebeginner. What difference does it make how many posts one makes? I thought the forum was about getting help and opinions on hands. I'm confused. What is the forum about? Just for online players? Just for people who make smart replies? Just for you to discourage people?

Please do not respond to anymore of my posts unless you have some positive input. I would not have made the post if I didnot want positive input.

Thanks to those who made posts that I was looking to receive.

This is ******ed. You can still respond to people's posts with what you think they should do. If you're wrong people will point it out, but you'll still learn a lot.

I can say with 100% honesty that I've learned more from people rebutting the advice I've given than from responses to any hand I've posted.

As for the original question: I figure out the best way to get my money in the middle. You have top two. It's a cooler, and I assume you're playing within your bankroll enough to where you simply tapped the table and bought back in without much thought. . . .
