ftops event #3. how bad is this resteal?

[fsoyars]

How much do you hate this resteal? I know i shouldn't post results, but i busted on this hand. Maybe it's not that interesting, but after playing freaking 3 and a half hours of solid poker i went out on this one 493rd (405 money) and have been thinking about whether or not it was really horrible.

i'm somewhat new to the table and haven't made any big moves yet. villain had not been super aggro on my BB but had been active and it seemed to me he could certainly be open raising from the button with a wide range here.

It is'nt bad at all if it worked you increase your stack by about 20% he could have a pretty wide range of hands many of which he will drop to a reraise. The fact you are within 100 of the money is not a consideration, you are short and unless you pick up some chips you are not going to make the money in any event.

It's marginal but OK, given stack sizes and reads.

I like it

yeah maybe it's just results oriented thinking. he thought and called with KJo and his hand held and i went out. the call was obviously gross but it just got me wondering if i should have been more patient and looked for a better spot to get my chips in. or at least had a better read that he was willing to fold a marginal hand here.
