This is probably a no brainer to most of you but I started thinking about it after I played the hand...
My question here is: in respect to the stack sizes and position is a regular reraise here obligatory or can I miniraise or just call in order to try and have another big stack in the hand and thus potentially earning more on my big PF hand, or should I just normally reraise to say $40 and risk the big stack folding and shorty being all in now or on flop?
My reraise looks like that squeeze of which I just recently learned about and thus it seems that the big stack original raiser might fold to my proper reraise and I will have only shorty (or no one) to play this against...
Minraise can pretty much ensure me that the big stack won't fold and I don't really care about the short stack, but i am then against 2 players and if big stack outflops me /because my MR gave him odds to call for a set or whatever/ then I am probably losing my big stack....
So, should I just properly reraise this, or try to get a big stack in there also? How and why?
