Re: How bad is this play with KK?
I think blinds were at 2k/4k with a 200 ante so roughly 7,600 in pot preflop. I open pushed for like 60k. My reasoning (fwiw) was that I didnt want to play with the two big stacks on my left so close to the bubble. Was hoping a short stack might call with AQ or JJ or TT or something like that. And if one of the big stacks woke up with a hand, then oh well, I went out with KK.
In retrospect, I think this was absolutely horrible. I should have raised to like 15k or so (1/4 of my stack). I had a real chance to earn some chips and I blew it.
I don't like the limp reraise myself. The way I was playing, limping from EP would have looked very suspicious.
