Calldown in a reraised pot, 25/50 live v. a capable bluffer

[AdamBragar]

I actually think preflop bet sizing is a huge consideration in a game like this that I definitely don't think about enough when I play live. Raising so big with a midpocket seems like it's going to put you in tons of awkward spots. Raising to 200 seems like it might protect against a bunch of limpers and someone making some ridiculous raise in LP. Depending on how the game is playing, I like limping or a small raise pre.

Also, preflop, do you 4 bet with AA, KK or QQ here? How about AK? With these stack sizes, I might consider making it 5.5k or so because calling with 88 gives you so many flops that become terrible to play.

Given your reads and the board, I'm getting my money in. It would suck if he had 99.
