This was the first time, however, I have seen him limp in then puch all in after raise. I'm thinking if I folded I would have about T1000 and the 50/100 blind level will be coming soon and I will have to be in trouble. Should I fold and hope to get a good doulbe up spot or shold I put him on a weaker hand and call the raise?

Easy call IMO. Possible he's limp/reraising with a big hand, but it is also very likely he has AK or a lower pair. Blinds are going to start getting high, so you have to make a move.

What have the players behind him been doing? Could he be fairly certain he was getting a raise? Eg. have you or Aerchon been regularly raising MP limpers?If so, then a limp/reraise with a monster is possible (but not definite), and I would consider folding....with your stack I probably wind up calling anyway. IF he cant count on a raise, then I dont think theres anyway he's trapping, and is just trying to bully his way to 500 chips.

Well, I have been playing conservatively and I hardly limp in without suited contector or small pair. Aerchon has been playing conservatively, too. Anyway, here was what happen this hand:RoyalLance: calls 1020 and is all-inAerchon: folds *** FLOP *** [6d 4c Ks]*** TURN *** [6d 4c Ks] [2s]*** RIVER *** [6d 4c Ks 2s] [Tc]*** SHOW DOWN ***RoyalLance: shows [Qc Qs] (a pair of Queens)RoadKing41: shows [Kh Kc] (three of a kind, Kings)RoadKing41 collected 2790 from pot*** SUMMARY ***Total pot 2790 | Rake 0 Board [6d 4c Ks 2s Tc]Seat 1: minceman folded before Flop (didn't bet)Seat 2: GreatFatness (button) folded before Flop (didn't bet)Seat 3: RoyalLance (small blind) showed [Qc Qs] and lost with a pair of QueensSeat 5: Aerchon (big blind) folded before FlopSeat 6: edge845 folded before Flop (didn't bet)Seat 7: fourdad folded before Flop (didn't bet)Seat 8: no1scottie folded before Flop (didn't bet)Seat 9: RoadKing41 showed [Kh Kc] and won (2790) with three of a kind, KingsMy guess is he was thinking that some donkey would raise with Jack-Ten or Eight-Eight and take advantage of the. It was just my luck that my hand was to strong to fold and my stack was too small to wait for a better spot.

Agree with what everyone said. With your stack and the blinds going up, I believe that it is a calling situation. See that play alot though online, even when people aren't aggressive and raise MP limpers. And he's lucky you had a hand you couldnt have folded. To me his play wasn't that great. What if you were able to limp in with something in the blind or late position and flopped it, i.e. a suited connector and flopped two pair or a straight? He would have been in a world of hurt. I think you made the right play. Good luck!

Yeh good call considering your stack size and the blind levels...best hand your gonna see.But, let's say the blinds are small and you have a healthy stack. Many online players play like roadking, and i tend to watch out for these guys. Always raise with the QQ, but when he puts 5000+ up into a 250 dollar raise, I fold :cry: Even when he limps everytime, if he ever showsdown a hand make sure you make a note to yourself.
