Message: [QUOTE="fletchdad, post: 7176475, member: 65205"] In my opinion, this question is unanswerable without answering the following questions (and I am not asking all of them that could be asked) What is your goal by going all in? Are you opening the pot or raising? From what position and facing what kind of stacks? How do you think your opponent will view your all-in, and why? There is so much more to clear up as well, but the first question should be the first thing you ask yourself when thinking of going all in (or any other play). Asking your OP in that form is kinda like asking someone if your dish needs more of a certain spice, but you wont tell them what the dish is or let them taste it. I am not trying to be rude, but some of the differences between most poker players and the really good ones are the things they consider before making any kind of play. For such a simple game, poker can be quite complex. [/QUOTE]
