5-handed and out of position, isn't he almost always going to raise back preflop rather than cold-call the reraise with AA/KK?

Any read on villian's raising range UTG? Is he raising middle pairs?

The flop check-call just seems odd to me here. Raggy, rainbow board, no straight draws unless he has 45 or something. AT doesn't check-call here, especially if you only have 690 left behind right?

Seems like a middle pair, 88-QQ? So he probably lays down those hands minus TT obviously?

even if hes bad, is he gonna lay down any 88-QQ to a pot sized all in at this point? and isnt it possible he was fishing with A K if hes THAT bad? i like it if you know you can get this guy to lay down but as played im not sure i fire again. youre the one with the read though....

yves,

while "no read no bluff" is a misnomer, i like my 'blind' bluffs to be in better spots than this, a la missed powerdraw or something where my line looks exactly like a set or something. so to me this bluff is very meh without knowing more than he is "ok".

actually I'm thinking about this more and have decided in my sleepless stupor that your line does in fact look like TT-AA, so your bluff is better than "meh".
