Rhound - I got 2 outted in a $2000 pot last year, I have also broke a cup in half playing catcher. The feelings were similar.

Aight, no one's interested in the reraise amount. Can I get some thoughts on the blind play stuff? (I tried to use the converter thing, but I suck)

1. 5/10 NL Cash game. 6 handed. Everyone has about $2,000. A passive middle position player raises to $40. Button re-raises to $70.

You are in the BB and have: [8s] [8c]

What should you do?

Fold. One of them obviously holds a higher pocket pair
Call and semi bluff all in on a low flop
Call
Raise to $180 about 50% of the time, call 50% of the time
Raise to $225 about 25% of the time, call 75% of the time

I think I said call here. I'm thinking I'm behind to a bigger pair so looking to flop a set or fold the flop.

2. 5/10 NL Cash game. 9 handed. Everyone has about $1,000. Unknown middle position raises to $40. Tight player on the button re-raises to $140.

You are in the BB and have: [As] [Qs]

What should you do?

Call
Raise
Fold
Call 1/3, fold 1/3, raise 1/3
Raise all-in 10%, but fold 90%
Raise all-in 10%, but call 90%

I think I said fold this one. I'm OOP and probably dominated.


3. 5/10 NL Cash game. 9 handed. You have a tricky tight aggressive image. Everyone has about $1,000. 3 limpers.

You are in the SB and hold: [7c] [5c]

What should you do?

Fold
Call
Raise
All-in 2% and call 98%
Big raise 50% and call 50%

I said big raise 50% call 50%; since I play low stakes, I call this more like 80% or 90%, but I would think that varying the play and possibly stealing the pot makes it worthwhile at higher stakes, since players can fold KTo.

4. 5/10 NL Cash game, $1,000 stacks. A solid tight aggressive winning player limps in middle position.

Folded to you in the big blind. Your image is tight aggressive. You hold:
[2h] [4c]

You check. Flop:
[2s] [4h] [7d]

You lead for $35, the limper raises to $120. Which is a better option?

Fold
Raise all-in

Of these two options, I thought folding was better, since I mostly just win what's in the pot by pushing, whereas I'm getting crushed if he has 77. Even if he calls with an overpair he'll see the river with 8 outs so I'm not that far ahead. By the provided read on this player; however, I don't think we can expect a call with just an overpair.


5. 5/10 NL. $1,500 stacks. 9 handed. A tight aggressive middle position player raises to $40. Another tight aggressive player on the button re-raises to $140. You're in the big blind with:
[Ah] [Kc]

What should you do? Your image is tight aggressive, but you were recently caught bluffing.

Fold
Call
Re-raise
All-in

I said fold. One of them almost surely has a decent pp and the other probably has one of my aces, if not two of them or two of my kings. I'm OOP as well, so just wait for a better spot.

Any insight is much appreciated.

Yeah, I looked over the answers that ED posted in AG and didn't see any for 50% big raise 50% call. Upon reflection, yeah 50% is too much, so should have just gone with call. But my score was 71% on blinds so I'm guessing that I have at least one other mistake. Do you share the same reasoning on these hands or different?
