Example 1
You are in early position and you get . The player before you folds. What should you do?

Answer:
You should call. Given that there are so many more players to come calling is the best to do. In case you would raise it will be very hard to fold against a reraise. In case you just call you will be able to call a (small) raise with the chance to hit three of a kind or a two pair.

Example 2
You are on the small blind and you get . The first player (under the gun) raises 3 times the big blind and the 3 players after him call. What should you do?

Answer:
You should fold. This hand is playable on a shorthand table or heads-up. At a longhand table with so many players in the pot the chance is too large that someone else will hit a higher flush (given that he might have two cards of the same suit but higher). Besides that you might also get in trouble against someone with a low pocket pair (who flops a set).

Example 3
You are in middle position and you get . The player under the gun raises to 5 times the big blind. All others fold. What should you do?

Answer
You should fold. To start with, AJ is not a very good hand in a no limit cash game! Furthermore a player in early position made a large raise which means that it is very likely that he/she has an AK or a high pocket pair. Moreover, it is also still possible that a player after you will do a re raise (especially in case you are at a table with loose aggressive players). Even if you would call and hit an Ace or Jack at the flop you could still get in trouble very easily because for example someone else has a higher kicker or an over pair. This should be an easy fold.

Example 4
You are under the gun and you get what should you do?

Answer[i]
You should call. When being in a no limit cash game it is best with any pocket pair to just call, unless you are in a late position or when you have a high pocket pair (JJ or higher). In this case you are the first to make a decision so it is the best to just call and hope to flop a set or three of a kind. In case you decide to raise anyway you should most definitely fold when someone else makes a re raise.

Example 5
You are in the big blind and you have . The player under the gun raises 4 times the big blind. All other players fold. What should you do?

[i]Answer
In general it is best to play suited connectors in pots with many players and in which you only have to pay a fraction of the total amount in the pot. Even if you hit a good flop the chance is still too small that you will earn a significant amount. In other words, you should fold.
