    MP3 (t1600)
    CO (t1490)
    Button (t1680)
    SB (t1520)

    Hero's M: 49.00

    Preflop: Hero is MP2 with ,
    UTG calls t20, UTG+1 calls t20, 1 fold, Hero raises to t120, 2 folds, Button calls t120, 3 folds, UTG+1 calls t100

    You need to raise to find out where you are. This is definately not a shove/fold spot. The blinds are 10/20 and you wouold have plenty of time to chip up again. I would make it 550 - 600.

    If he shoves, THEN you have a big decision to make. The ol' "am I prepared to bust with TPTK?" one. With no reads I am not prepared to bust with TPTK.

    raise/call because theres some draws out there are people wont fold AQ/AJ. any decent raise is going to be over half your stack, so even considering folding at that point is verrrrrrry bad with TPTK

    FD and Ax aren't folding often.

    I agree. With the size of the pot, we're not unhappy to be folding out flush draws anyways. The times we stack off to a set are easily outweighed by the folds we get and the calls from hands that we are way ahead of.
