PokerStars - $0.25/$0.50 (6 max) - Holdem - 4 players

UTG: $21.05
BTN: $6.00
SB: $9.10
Hero (BB): $7.55

SB posts SB $0.10, Hero posts BB $0.25

Pre Flop: ($0.35) Hero has Q♥ J♣

UTG raises to $0.50, BTN raises to $0.75, SB calls $0.65, Hero ?

Say I have smth like 18-19% against their presumable ranges. Fold or coldcall?

I opt to fold because danger of dominance is really high, I don't have full straight potential with this hand and I'm playing OOP.

Hi!

I suggest not to play these shorter tables,higher variance and huge amount of marginal spots like this.

Its pretty much cap or fold spot and I dont mind neither one but I go for capping.Its not really a place to ccall,COs range is wide and SB also is far from just premium. You also have the chance to kick out CO and then be IP vs SB and have a very stong percieved range. If both call its still not the end of the world since your hand is far from bad+you have fold equity.

Wouldnt mind fold as well.QJo is not the best hand in terms of playability and so I would preffer to have 9Ts then QJo.

In any case if you decide to cap its for balancing reasons not strictly for equity ones where you are about the same as CO and SB is stronger then both of you.
