Im on SB with A/3 off (13bb)
But the button make an Open Raise to 2bb with 7bb behind
8 max table. Tournament. Microlimits
I folded… it was fine?
Honestly, I think folding A3 offsuit there was the right move — and that’s exactly what I would’ve done too. At microlimits, I’ve seen so many players make that kind of small raise with 7 BB left as a trap, especially with
hands like AA, KK, or even strong Broadway combos. It’s like they’re begging for a shove.
With 13 BB in the small blind, I really don’t want to reshove into that unless I’m holding something stronger. A3o is just too weak — I’d feel dominated way too often, and I don’t want to flip unnecessarily when I still have fold
equity and better spots ahead.
So yeah, I’d fold there every time. Good discipline on your part!
