Default Re-raises/re-steals late in a tournament.

Hi, I’ve been final tabling quite a few MTTs in the last few weeks, and I’ve just realised something which might explain why I’m not making it into the top 3. I’m almost never re-raising people without a real monster, but I’m folding to people whenever they re-raise me, again, unless I’ve got a really good hand.

This is making me think that people are re-stealing from me, but I’m not re-stealing from them, which must be giving them a big advantage.

OK, so my questions are these.

How do people respond to a re-raise if they don’t have much of a hand? How often does it have to happen before you push back, and what kinds of cards do you want to be doing this with? Do you ever just flat call the re-raise?

With re-stealing from other players, what kinds of things are you thinking about with this? i.e. what makes a good opportunity for a re-steal, and when should you just fold?

Thanks,
