    Default trips in position early ($60 turbo 18 man on PS)

    Early but UTG+1 seemed retarded, so I thought I'd play a pot with him in position (lol post flop in turbo?). No reads at all on BB. Thoughts?

    It started with me trying to clear that damn bonus (post somewhere in forum) and now I'm addicted to $60 turbos

    Seriously though I would rather your hand be suited to go up against a Lagtard, but meh.

    As played I think I would just get the rest in here. I can't imagine that BB would either limp behind pre-flop with JJ or call the flop bet with 55 so I think you are still ahead here, and if he is calling any significant raise he is calling the push.

    Yeah I think all the posts are going to be "fold preflop" and "push turn". I just thought I'd see if anyone said anything different

    I would push over the turn.

    BTW I sharkscoped the BB:
    Buckeye48 832 -$1 $13 0% -$489

    Good to see you posting here Courtie!

    As you guessed from a SNG nit, I vote for fold preflop

    As played, flop is fine and I push over on the turn.

    I like it. Push the turn for draw protection + value. A strong J will probably call.

    I suck at writing posts at night, hence all my edits. I orginally had "UTG" instead of "UTG+1" in my first post and "push flop" instead of "push turn" in my third post. I know it didn't matter but I edited because I'm OCD.

    Anyway BB's range obviously isn't only hands with 9's in it and I beat a bunch of 9's, so I think it's an easy turn shove too! That's the way I rationalize it anyway. Thanks for your replies.
