This was in the very early stages in tonight's Double stack open...(hence why I am posting it after 1/2 hour, lol) Even if I put someone on trips or two pair, do I still make the move I did?

Calling in Cash vs Tourny

It is the calling from players in all positions that is confusing me. I understand that with no blind pressure that calling a…

Playing the nuts against 2 players
10 handed table, im playing a few games, my approach on these tables is to just play the cards im dealt, try n flop the nuts, or find AA / KK pre and get it in, im not really interested in watching how others play, whats been going on, who's lairy, agro etc - I cant multi table like others, so I just play cards - Hence I…

This is a common situation that I feel is a leak for me. What would you do in the below case? You have a fairly trashy hand in the BB, one min raiser action to you.
