$3.4 - 88 BB l4

Is this terrible play?
I got the odds to call the reraise, right?
How about on the flop, should I have called knowing he could be bluffing?

There is 300 in the pot when it gets to you.

Just push preflop and take that.

[Bad Beat Expert]

Pre-flop, I would've raised slightly more than 300 to discourage action. Since you didn't, it'd be nice if you had some kind of read on villain. Readless, the limp/minraise looks fishy, but it could be two high cards as well as a better pair looking to isolate. Unlike RexWoo, I'd take a flop, because if it comes something like 3 broadway cards, I get out of dodge. However, in a $3.40 turbo, with that much money in the pot, I think you have to like that flop and call, hoping to catch a bluff or semi-bluff.

QFT?

Pushing with 17xBB? Good risk reward ratio?

QFT=Quoted for truth or Quite effing true.

Think about it, with 300 in the pot it's the same as shoving at level 100/200.

UTG only has 10BBs and SB is almost never calling.

These two sentences didn't just sharpen my understanding at 2+2 - the second one actually helped me alot! This is a good advise. I think I should push more with (Dead-)Money in the Pot.
