    shove pre mostly, fold pre rarely, call pre never. It's 30% of your stack. Cant fold flop either.

    call pre seems fine I guess, mostly cause every other option sucks. You can sometimes fold and not tell anyone about it, but 4bet/getting it in is usually gonna be borderline at best without a decent read.

    postflop sucks. again, you can prolly fold and not tell anyone, but barring reads swaying me one way or the other im usually fine stacking off here.

    so there's no reads on any of the players?

    without reads, I like call pf and call flop

    if you changed the buyin from big 4.40 to big 55 i'd def like calling flop more then raising. I just tend to gambol more with idiots in a 4.40

    Just quietly fold pre and pretend it never happened. Guess now we've seen the flop, call, but I hate it. I fold pre because flop action is always going to suck vs this many villains in a 3bet pot.

    I sigh fold flop & type in chat to friends on SKype a different hand than I actually had.
    I'd play this the same as you did here (call pre > fold flop)... but can see what others are saying with it being the $4.40 where you can factor in a fair bit spazz factor for villain (toss in a bit of > "wtf are they thinking there? .... are they even f'n thinking???")
    Folding w 45bb's and likely a bunch of tards on the table seems fine.

    Some unusual action preflop. I don't know if I'm ready to risk 6BB out of postion for set mining. I fold preflop.
