    Default $11 AJs- pot odds decide this?

    What do you do in situations like this? Pot odds are good but I'm just scared to call because I will lose a lot..

    Full Tilt Poker, $10 + $1 NL Hold'em Sit n' Go, 40/80 Blinds, 8 Players
    LeggoPoker.com - Hand History Converter

    BB: 3,210
    UTG: 2,070
    UTG+1: 1,040
    Hero (MP1): 1,685
    MP2: 1,785
    CO: 2,265
    BTN: 725
    SB: 720

    Pre-Flop: (120) J A dealt to Hero (MP1)
    2 folds, Hero raises to 200, 3 folds, SB raises to 720 and is All-In, BB folds, Hero ???

    Finding my game
    You're most likely flipping or dominated, without reads I fold.
    Our brains have just one scale, and we resize our experiences to fit.

    snap call, if you don't want to play here open fold unless everyone is a super nit. Folding here turns AJs into 72o

    I prob 50/50 muck/raise here but If I'm raising here it's with the intention of calling the 2 short stack shoves.

    I did raise with the intention of calling from short stacks and eventually called.. drmcboy are you calling only short stacks too or any player?

    I probably open fold preflop but it's close.

    As Detroit said, if I'm raising here, I am calling the two short stacks if they shove but folding to a shove by anybody else (unless reads indicate they are maniacs).

    Yea I agree with Tai, depending on how the table was, I'd most likely muck pf.
    When I raise Im never ever folding to the shorties shove.

    This should be an insta-call.

    Put another way, this should be the reason you raise in the first place. If not, its a fold.
    Just dipping my toes back in.
