I'm playing a villain on two tables who's raising 25% of his hands. I've seen him raise a SC in LP. I"ve seen him raise 33 in EP.

He raises 7 or x3.5BB in MP. I'm SB with A[s] K[c]. I'm thinking of reraising him big, until a full stack calls, and another guy calls. Vilain and I are full.

Now what? Call and hope for your flop? If so, what's your plan for say a AJ5r flop? Folding seems too weak tight. Reraising scares me since there are two full stacks in this.

Thoughts

I probably just fold preflop.

Pushing all in is fine with me. I really dont like any other reraise amount.

Folding preflop is rarely that bad of an option. There are opportunites galore to take money from fools.

Hey that sounds like a pretty cool quote. Maybe I'll quote myself sometime.

Good comments, and I really agree with Stoney's line.

If I rereaise, I'm getting called, and I'm pretty much committed if I make a CB or if a A falls.

I think its push or fold.

Unfortunately, I decided to walk in the middle of the road where you get squished just like grape... I called. Flop was AT6r. I checked, pfr bet 1/2 pot, other guy called, and I CRAI. BOTH OF THEM CALLED. Yikes. But in classic Tribeca manner, pfr guy had AQ and other guy had A2 (huh). Turn spiked a Q and I lost a $600 pot. Ugh. Oh well, I misplayed it.

I still think its push or fold preflop.

Tim, I think that the way the rest of the hand played out tells you that you played it very well considering the opposition. "In classic Tribeca manner," you're going to get paid a lot by people with lower kickers if an A or K flops. So the flat call is great. You risk very little preflop and are very likely to have the best hand if an A or a K flops.

IMO considering the donkitude of the Tribecanauts, you played it perfectly.

Bleh Kent I think you're being a little too results oriented here. Tim won because he got lucky and spiked the case ace here. I still prefer a push or fold preflop, and I'm thinking the push is the better play.

Well you uhhh, won a bunch of sklansky bucks, which is what I hear those kids are into nowadays.
