    I hear what your`e saying, is it not worth seeing a flop with limpers for an extra 60?

    You're OOP with a very ugly hand that very rarely flops good, most times you are check folding.

    You're also only 36bbs so implied odds are not good either.

    Finally it's a BH so you'll find lots of better spots imo against loose players who 'want dat bounty'

    fold pre, esp if you dont know what to do when you flop top two.

    Bet flop. As played stick it in imo, prob get shown a set a good bit though

    No this is a great spot to go all in, folding here in a BH would be VERY bad imo (tbh though folding here in most MTT's would be pretty dire), fact he had 88 means nothing.

    Yep, fold pre, shove it now you flopped two pair. What else do you want to hit with this hand? Flop a straight?

    Result is unlucky but error was pre flop! :-)
