this sort of spot is nearly impossible to analyse on its own imo. it could either be the best spot ever or the worst spot depending on previous dynamics.

i think you have to be jamming this fwiw, cant just click it back as i think we get shoved on every time if we do that. thats if you decide to 5b, folding is good too just depends on dynamics.

meh its really close spot. but i prob fold and let the aggro out each other.

how about limping the BTN with a hand like this that flops pretty decent 3way and you want to see a flop but you know the people are overly aggro?

Yeah, that's a tough one. A lot of times people who just recently double play a little fit or fold for the next few hands but I'm not sure if that matters much here.

I don't really like this particular hand as a 5 bet hand since we don't have blockers to too many things that can cold 4 and we need to stick a lot of chips in the middle at this point. A jam probably looks weaker than a normal sized 5 bet but anything less than a jam and we really can't be 5 bet/folding.

I don't mind the button limping suggestion at all here because we're so deep.

What are the payouts? Definitely inclined to fold here as you could easily be in 2nd place after this hand anyway.
