You have two people calling a raise and a reraise cold and you do not want to see a 4-way flop with QQ. I reraise and call a push from the button since it is only $5 more after/if he calls your reraise. Hopefully you are not up against AA or KK. A lot of times you are racing with AK.I like the play.

prideofatx 0 Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 IMO this is based on how big of fish are the other players at the table plus the three bettors range. If you have seen the callers call reraises with really marginal hands (KJ, Axs actually might not be uncommon here for some of the bad players at this level (im currently grinding my bankroll at .05 .1) im more likely to repop. Also the second thing im worrying about is the three bettors range. If hes a guy that will three bet you with 88 + and AJ + I definately repop. If the four bet comes i think its time to lay it down.that said with 8 hands you probably dont have any of these reads Link to post Share on other sites
Moneyball16 0 Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Shovel. No point in going to 5 when you started with 8.85. Lots of what will probably be dead money in there to make up for the times when you run into AA or KK. Link to post Share on other sites
