Call pre
fold flop
^^^^^exactly this......getting yourself into too much of a tricky situation trying anything else after u dont hit flop this early on......when heart comes on turn if there was a bet u need to be calling again so losing more chips!!
In a 45 or 90 might be different though!! ;D ;D

To be fair most people seem to be agreeing that you should peel preflop here and that line is superior to folding. I am still not too sure I like it but if we are confident post flop then I can accept that it might be the better play.
I don"t see myself starting to do it any time soon though. Just still feels incorrect to me and I am very happy with my current approach to these games. A wise man recently told me - if it isn"t broke, don"t try to fix it :)
Good thread does anybody else have any feelings on this spot either way?
Also what would you do it AJ, AQ, AK, JJ and QQ here?

We are 70 bb"s deep, that"s likely as deep stacked as we"ll be for the whole tourney, not seeing a cheap flop here with ATs is a big missed opportunity imho.

I remain unconvinced we even should be calling here OOP although I appear to be well in the minority and some much better players than me seem to think we should so I am wrong. I just can"t see many advantages in it though.
It just looks to me like a spot which is nice in theory however in reality there are so many flops that will get us into trouble in game.

Not if you have a plan and stick to it, seriously Rodders you will give up your postflop edge and play a predominantly preflop strategy in a $2.50 game?
Out of curiosity, what is your itm % & top 3 place % for this game?
