UTG limper is a Super laggy spewmonkey. Not worried about him at all after his limp.

    Just go areen pre.

    Although min raising after a limper is really annoying and could well be a monster. Meh I probs still jam. I don't really like 3betting small.

    Shoving 24 bigs with TT against an UTG limper then a min-raise is usually suicide. By the time the blinds are 125/250, this prior action usually indicates someone has a massive hand (and often most of the complete newbies are gone by the time the blinds reach this level). But you know this.

    I would have flatted pre (folding is just too tight). This is contrary to the way that 90% of the players on sky play, but so what?
    Having the betting lead here is potentially very valuable.
    On a ten-high flop I'd be looking to get it all in and go broke if any of the villains had a massive hand (would have gone broke same way by shoving pre so nothing lost or gained).
    On a flop with two overcards I'd just let it go.
    Now on the flop as presented, I'd have had a stab at it (not on a flop with an ace though, just give up). With 2K in the pot (after flatting pre) a bet of 1K would do it on the basis of 'no king, no call'. If you get any action, just give up then. 1,500 chips invested, about 4.4 K left to fight on with.

    +1.  I'm likelf folding and looking for an unopened spot.  Your hand plays pretty badly vs the hands likely to be in with money invested.  I dont like it, but I'm waiting for a spot with less resistance.

    LOL a player who has 16k in chips has limped so is obvz awful.

    A player has then topped this awfulness by minraising a guy who has limped with 16k.

    This is such a simple snap shove pre it doesn't even require any thought.

    with dohs reads there is no way shoving is suicide here. You add 20% if they fold and you do ok against their calling range

    Amybr, I prefer restealing with this kind of stack than opening, definitely prefer it if we are a little shallower, like 15-20BB

    i dont like the 3bet pre - its too small given the action and stack sizes - if nothing else it invites a reshove

    i'd either call or shove depending on reads and looseness of opponents

    the raise on the flop just screams weakness, thats kinda why i would shove or call, you dont have a big enough stack to make a sensible flop raise and then fold so its either all going in or call and see what comes
