Default Re: finally, i post a hand where my play is *not* weak-tight

It is a good play based on the reasons you have given, but this play is also player dependant. Many players, including myself would not call off >1/4 of a stack with 89o. To me this looks like a limp-reraise with a strong hand, therefore I believe you may be low on his range. A pocket pair is possible, but a weak ace or KQ I believe is very unlikely. I don't believe someone would make this play with a hand so easily dominated. From his perspective, his FE is quite high, and his UTG limp could give the illusion of strength, therefore dissuading a call. Arguments from both sides, but like I said earlier, this play definitely player dependant. Mind you aren't at a point in the tournament where stack preservation is prevalent, but more imporant is chip accumulation...to be honest i'm really on the fence here.
