Blinds are 2000/4000/500 ante. 25 left of 180. 2.17 million chips in play.you just moved to this table and lost a flip J10 v 88. The table seems competent in general for the first few loops you are there. They seem to know decent shoving/calling ranges and are aggressive to a fault (which isn't good when you aren't the one picking up hands).

You have 76k. Table stacks are all around 70k. Two big stacks 210k and 150k and one shorty 40k. 3 limpers to you in CO, which you note as weird. You have A6s. You?

Button limp, SB completes, Bb checks.

Flop: 389hh (your suit). Utg bets 20k into 32.5k. You?

Also, the real payouts start at 10th place. 11-15 are absolute chump change

Thanks

Oh yeah, forgot to say: haven't seen utg play many hands as he was short stacked the entire time until 3 hands ago when he jammed qq pre and doubled to 70k

Easy fold. I don't see a reason to get involved in this spot with less than 20 bbs. However after the flop you just have to ship it after all what flop are you hoping for with that hand?

I basically agree but it feels like you have 0 FE here which is a nuisance

Post flop is easy: Shove and expect to take it down. If not you have a bunch of outs.

Pre-flop I disagree with other posts. If everyone folded to you A6s is plenty strong enough to steal. Unless you think one of the limpers (mostly UTG) is limping with a monster, there's even more money to steal -- you'd increase your stack by 30%. I'd put in a healthy raise to 20-25K.
