Deepstacked Reseal Late 24+2 FT

[tvta]

This is from a 17k on full tilt my buddy played last night, final 2 tables - something like 12 left, av stack is probably around 240k. The button had been loose and stealing his BB for several consecutive orbits. Is this standard? Restealing hero has air.

Don't like it with air -- button has slightly too many chips here to may the risk/reward ratio worth it imo...if he had like 335K total it would be a better spot

IMO, if you're going to resteal with air, it's less important how often villain has been stealing than whether or not he's able to lay down a hand that he's raised with. I would like to see at least one lay down before attempting this with air.

i like your point. this guy actually had AKo this hand and instacalled without even flinching, the turn paired hero...so it was a brutal river. later on in the tourney i saw him instacall with marginal holdings for large allins just as in this hand.

Stack sizes are way off for this move. Both are too deepstacked to resteal here with air. 3x 3-bet would be sufficient and let you get away from it.

I would much rather just make it 125k. Basically has the same effect.
