    This is a fold pre.

    As played, unlucky, but you really shouldn't be in the hand.

    Challenging to read all that in white ;)

    Only playing about 30bb pre flop. We have 9 high in the SB, in a none multiway pot. It's then min 3bet from the BB. We are getting a good price after that 3bet but we have a pretty junky hand that is gonna brick so many flops. And we will be playing the whole hand out of position.

    It's not the worst peel pre I've ever seen, and the hand plays itself post flop, but with a 30bb stack and being OOP, we really can just bin 89 pre. It's a hand and position that we don't really need to get involved. We're gonna flop hard like this very very rarely; more often we'll hit the flop sideways, 2nd or 3rd pair maybe, and will have no idea where we are in the hand. Or just miss totally and have to check fold, wasting chips from our already dwindling stack.

    Edit - ok, the guy has deleted his post. Thanks for making me look like an idiot ;)

    aye, fold pre unless it's a friday night & you're on the beers,

    flop onwards is fine, unlucky

    Don't hate the call pre in some situations, but I think you should be potting the flop here or close to it. I would certainly raise the bet on the flop to close to 1.5k with the view to get it in on any turn.
