2nd hour into a $11 rebuy, hero is within top 15 chip leaders among 170ish remaining players. Joined the new table about one and half orbit ago, so no specific read on the villain. Hero bet/raised and took two pots so far, show down once where hero had a strong hand.

Giant reraises usually means 'I have a pretty big hand but got no idea how to play it postflop (and my postflop skills suck, lol)', typically TT-QQ, AQ+. I would call without much hesitation here.

reads are important - if this guy is tricky and plays his big hands in a way to disguise them then i'd be wary, but without reads and without a long history w this guy i'd call.

It's usually AK or a pair slightly lower than yours. You have to call.

Anyone would like to vote to 'hey, you may be ahead here plenty of time, but why bother? You have a nice stack, just move on and you will find a better chancee to put your money in later.'

[/ QUOTE ] Sure, it crosses your mind, but even if we say his range is 66-AA, AK (and in reality, KK and AA should be severely discounted), you simply have too much of an equity edge to fold. Good players are usually good because they takes edges like this when they arise, not because they pass on them to outplay their opponents later. |
