You are delt 88...

ok.. you said UTG was "very tight". so you are behind his range for sure. the best you can hope for is AK since he's only raising JJ+ and AK UTG.

so if by "loose" you mean that there is very little chance of a reraise, then a call would be fine. But I'm folding 80% of the time if UTG is "very tight".

so wrong

Now explain why.

[ncboiler]

Fold because I am only beating A/K and A/Q. Obv calling is not an option and raising may not guarantee a HU situation.

I'm a nit!!!

[Bluegrassplayer]

Why do you guys have to be beating him right now? Thats not the point of chasing a set. He is a super tight player and is raising under the gun, he likely has a huge hand... a huge enough hand to pay you off when you hit your set.

I probably call every pair and reraise KK+.

[/ QUOTE ]

I think is is a very bad idea because if you want to play I think you need it heads up.

[ QUOTE ]


If other people are aware that he's very tight the chance of a reraise behind is very small.

At 100NL there is a very small chance there are that many observant people at the table.

I might dump AK in this spot depending on specific stats.

I'm re-raising w/ A/K

At a loose table you may be stacking off with a set to a better hand. I just don't like all the redraw possibilities by just calling and set mining.

Wow, you are tight. Those redraw issues aren't that common and you can see them coming from a mile away.

[WCGRider]

I can understand not calling. But NOT because you want it heads up (???) or that they can redraw (????????).

Also i was going to say what bluegrassplayer said but i thought someone would mention it already.

To be honest i don't like the reasoning behind most of the arguments but at least there is some discussion going.

I know. I'm a new NL player and am not yet confident to play these marginal situations post flop yet. I auto fold.

[Mike Kelley]

It's great if he's ultra tight because that is what gives us the implied odds to call his bet and set mine.
