100NL 6max, 2p2er reraises my blind steal

jii · #1 09-11-2006, 05:09 PM

I had a mission. It was to start reraising aggressively. I did it, but noticed that I'm bad at playing reraised pots. Let's see what you think about this one.

Villain is from here, plays 200NL and 100NL. His stats are 20/15 pre-flop, and I assume his reraising range to be 22+, AJ+, ATs+, KQs.

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.50/$1
5 players

Stack sizes:
UTG: $30.25
CO: $106.90
Hero: $175.60
SB: $280.35
BB: $168.15

Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is Button with 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
UTG calls, CO folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $4.5</font>, SB folds, <font color="#cc0000">BB raises to $18</font>, UTG folds, Hero calls.

Flop: Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ($37.5, 2 players)

So, give comments about pre-flop and what is your plan if he's gonna check or bet the flop.

Villain is me if it makes a difference.

Fold preflop. You said you were going to start reraising more, not calling more reraises.

Lol, I was supposed to put two hands here, but removed the other one where I made the reraise...

Preflop is generally a raise-or-fold situation. I admit the call is tempting. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

If he bets the flop then push. If he checks then... nah he's never going to check. I'd probably check behind tho.

What? Push this flop? Why would you do that?

I don't understand the push either. Is his range really that broad with that reraise out of position? Doesn't the pair on the board decrease the value of our FD?

look at his range. then look at what % of that range will actually call the AI.

Then note that even if he does call, we're usually in OK shape still
