Default Re: Preflop decision with ladies against hachem

Lets pretend that we have 60% vs 40% against shortstacker's range(and it's probably so).
(60%-40%) * POTSIZE(925+925+185+75= 2100) = 420$ is our EV by calling (considering everybody left in a hand will 100% fold) . By reraising 700$ more we are representing so thin and strong range , so nobody can make a mistake against us. I mean nobody who are trying to win here longrun. We can't minreraise here, having 55% vs 45% against shortstacker , because we are investing 700$ to win 210$ (10% * POTSIZE) and it's breakeven point , because two other players will sometimes have AA/KK . I don't really like the word "sometimes" in poker , the best way is to calculate this "sometimes", but for now i think this is not SO important.
It's not bad to minraise with QQ here, trying to extract information which will help us to LOOSE LESS if we are coldcalled or reraised, but what about cases when we have AA/KK ? We will WIN LESS . So i think generally it's a bad idea to reraise QQ+ AK+ range here.
Im just a fish playing 5-10$, but as a former sng player i think i have a right to express my opinion here [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
