PREFLOP: When you have AJ in the BB...

All stacks are 100bb deep.

Folded around to the button who raises for 3.5x the bb. You have AJo in the BB, do you fold, call or reraise?

Re: PREFLOP: When you have AJ in the BB...
 

I mostly reraise, maybe 80:20 reraise to call. But it depends a lot on who button is, sometimes I will even muck.

Re: PREFLOP: When you have AJ in the BB...
 

RR/fold. I don't like calling as much. 70:20:10 in RR/fold/call.

Re: PREFLOP: When you have AJ in the BB...
 

Stats on villain? Against most, I reraise.

Re: PREFLOP: When you have AJ in the BB...
 

Call is silly methinks.

Fold/Reraise X%/Y% depending on reads/stats/history.

damn...
I thought it was a pretty easy auto-muck. I hate you Jam. Now let's pretend that you aren't running supernova hot.

seriously, why do you reraise? To take down the pot? Or because people 3-bet so much these days that the villain is likely to call you much weaker?

What about the [censored] reverse implied odds?

PT,

yeah, I rr too

Re: PREFLOP: When you have AJ in the BB...
 

WOW! I'm amazed how many people reraise. What the logic...

1) To take down the pot preflop.

2) Villain will call you with much weaker hands because everyone 3-bets these days?

3) What's your plan when the Villain calls.
A) A high board?
B) 8 high board, no draws?
