Been a long time (4 years or so, I think) since I've posted here in SSNL. Hope I'm not violating any forum norms by posting a preflop hand. Anyhow, I'm fooling around with Rush NL and am trying to rehabilitate my NL game as I do so. Thus the hand posted below.
Reads: nothing exceptional about the initial callers (15/7/1.5 and unknown). Over ~200 hands BB is 25/24/2.5 and I've seen him squeeze more than a few times. I read him for 88+, AQs+, AK here -- though perhaps that range is a little too wide. Since I've got 200+ hands on BB, I assume he's got the same on me. I'm playing 12.5/8/2+ over the last 50k, so I've got to believe he's seeing me as tighter than most other players.
Given stack sizes, slim likelihood that the callers will come along or 5bet me, did I make a decent play here or just spew chips?
