Default Re: NLTRN ($5+0.25) Call this reraise all in preflop?

It's just generally a bad idea to call an all in with KQ when you have close to equal stacks and you have not invested a good % of chips into the pot already.

A common range for a villain at the 5-10s is almost any ace, any pocket pair, KQ/KJ. You're splitting with one, you're ahead of another, everything else beats you.

Now I call that a fairly loose range because I personally would not be shoving with a lot of those hands. If I'm limp raising somebody I'm doing it with a pocket pair and usually a high one.

Did you raise a lot of this guy's limps in the bb? He could be fighting back. Has he made this move before? Has he shown he can somewhat read hands and make logical plays? Has he adjusted to your play somewhat?

The answers to these questions are fairly important, but I doubt you want to be calling with KQ here, it should be a losing play.
