I decided to call the $5 expecting UTG to move-in for his remaining $35. I thought it was very possible the other two players would fold their hands and I'd be racing with QTo. If either called, I planned to reraise and race with dead money in the pot.
UTG did indeed go all-in. The Button called after a little thought and then the Small Blind called quickly.
I hadn't expected both to call. But, I still went ahead with the limp-reraise. I made it $200 total. That amount seemed like it had the same fold equity as an all-in. But, it also allowed me to move the rest of my money in on any flop just in case they'd fold a no-pair, no-draw hand on the flop.
The Button thought a good long while before folding. The Small Blind was very upset at my big raise when I made it. But, he folded quickly when the action got to him. He said he had AJo.
My QTo was up against the Big Blind's J9o and Queen-high won the pot on a 7,6,5,5,4 board.
