50NL 6max. No HH, so I'll recall it in much more entertaining anecdote form.

I've been lagging this table pretty heavily, I think I'm prolly running 30/25 or so, although this place isn't PT compatible, I'm just saying that to give you an idea of how I'm playing. Most of the table are tight passive apart from the idiot on the button.

Button has $30, everyone else has $50 or so.

I'm in the BB with :Ks:
UTG Folds.
UTG+1 makes it $2 to go, everyone calls round to me.
My opponents have been tight preflop and nitty postflop, and I'm pretty sure they're retarded because I've been threebetting heavily, raising a lot, and they still haven't even thought about playing back..

So I make it $14 to go.

It's folded around to the button, a semi-loose semi-passive fish who likes rag aces and broadways, who pushes.

I call.

Thoughts on the squeeze and on the call?

squeeze is bad! dont squeeze when you would be committed to calling a short stacks push. at least have AJ or something to call with. the call when it gets back to you isnt terrible but you shouldnt get in that situation in the first place.

i dont like a squeeze here either. Really, i dont like squeezing at $50nl and below, and even at $100nl squeezes arent working in my experience.

Are you saying you are getting at least two callers when you try a squeeze at these stakes? I haven't played in awhile so I am just curious (this would be around the stakes I would play at). Or is there another reason that this is bad at these stakes (besides playing a shortstack, etc)?

Man, at 50 and 100 I fold like a bitch when I get squeezed. And I'm not bad.
