200NL: PF decision AK in the SB

napkins · #1 10-06-2006, 12:10 AM

This is a common situation that I've been finding myself in lately. I'll have a good hand in the SB, which might be the best at the moment, and there's a raise from MP and a call from CO/button. Are you reraising hands like AK/AQ and even JJ here? I feel like a lot of the time I'll have to make a large cbet with an unfriendly board OOP.

Hero ($198)
BB ($241.70)
UTG ($229.25)
MP ($176.10)
Button ($148.40)

Preflop: Hero is SB with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
1 fold, MP raises to $8, Button calls $8, Hero ???, 1 fold.

Reraise big enough to have them fold a lot, and don't CB all unfriendly flops. Also, consider calling preflop against tough positional opponents.. it works
