Post in uNL, and I'd probably fold multiway with AJ/AXh/and flushes making up a lot of his range.

i havent played 50nl in a while but in general the games play tighter as it gets smaller so i lean harder toward fold. do you have any reads on the co? this spot is not trivial, so im gunna just assume you're readless. readless i fold here

btw .25/.50 belongs in microstakes, and the players/posters there who play .25/.50 and lower as their main game will be able to provide more insightful advice

i always fold this because he is never rasing as a bluff here and the bottom of his range is AX h and have a lot of equity with you, and the top of his range have you outless.
