Hi, I was wondering what is a good strategy for small-mid poket pairs (22-88).
For example, I have been in this situation when its near the bubble and I have pocket 3 from Middle Position and theres an aggresive villain raising 3 - 6 x the BB with any two cards from EP.
Now I have 20 to 25 BB and I dont want to shove because villain could be going all in with anything and catching up a card to beat my pocket pair.
I could call, but this call could induce others to call as well for the pot odds. If I fold I could lose a potential significant pot. Also, I know villain is calling no matter what.
What do you guys do in a situation like this? ITM is important to me because I'm trying to build a bankroll.
