Here’s another quick poker quiz from the team at bet365 Poker for you to ponder.

In the first level of a multi table tournament, you open in first position with A-10 and are re-raised substantially by a solid player two seats down.
Do you FOLD, CALL, RE-RAISE or MOVE ALL-IN?

You have sunk down to eight big blinds and are in dire need of winning a hand. You get K-K in late position and an early-position player raises to three big blinds.
Do you FOLD, CALL, RE-RAISE or MOVE ALL-IN?

Close to the money, you’ve built up nicely after the K-K vs A-Q hand and are now a big stack. Everyone folds to you and you have K-9(s) in the cut-off seat. The other players have around 10-15 big blinds and there are antes in play.
Do you FOLD, CALL, RAISE or MOVE ALL-IN?

FOLD  A-10 is a weak hand in early position, and can’t stand a re-raise. By raising, you have represented a bigger hand than you have, but you’ve still been re-raised in another early position, so it’s hard to imagine many favorable situations.

MOVE ALL-IN   Your opponent very likely has an Ace or a big pair – you’d usually expect him to call because of the odds and so you want to get all the money in while you’re a favorite.

RAISE   Your opponents have moderate stacks and are just thinking about survival. What’s more, if you raise and one goes all-in, they have enough so you won’t be forced to call for the odds. K-9(s) probably isn’t the best hand here, but given the stage of the game, the antes and stacks, it’s worth having a go.
