Too risky? (11 on FTP)
villian has folded to 2 reraises earlier. Thought I had enough FE which I think I was close given it took villian all of time to make call. How out of line am I for making this play? Even worth risking for what i read as most likely coinflip?

In an $11 I wouldn't even consider it. Having done it twice already in that game I don't even think it's close. They don't expect you to have a good hand and will be willing to call you with a wide range. That goes for all of them. The guy who made the raise may well have a really good hand.

try to get in cheap with small pairs, and against a lot of people. Flop a set, or do not bet! Easy fold to his raise. Let it go and wait for e better spot.

Re: Too risky? (11 on FTP)
Well, coin flips are the situations you are LOOKING for here. Thats why (on this levels) I dont like this play. You HAVE massive edges over your opponents, so why make your buy-in walk through fire when the best you can achieve is a 500 chip pot or a coinflip for your entire stack?
Im not sure if FE holds up against the chance that your a 4.5 : 1 underdog against a higher pair. Having him seen fold 2 times to a re-raise before isnt that much of an argument. 50% that it is just his style, 50% that now hes got sick of it and calls you with a huge range. In this situation it doesnt matter whether he shows J8o or the Big Slick. I cant become friends with this play.
