lord knows what he has. could be anything. made str8? two clubs? two pair? slow played big pair or overpair unlikely of course. I'd call with a str8. you've got a decent stack for this point in the rebuy. i'd prefer not to jeopardize my stack.

i guess i'd also call with 2 pair.

Would need 2 pair or insane combo draw (OESD + flush). I expect pusher to be on a combo draw as well - or possibly 2 pair that's scared as hell.

So in the $50r, villain can't count on getting called by two clubs/one pair?

Villain can absolutely count on being called by just a flush draw or top pair, but if your the villains villain you definately shouldn't.

Cool. I was villain in this hand and was counting on being called by two pair always and TP and clubs almost always. My thinking was that too many hands call a normal bet, no one was raising without the nuts and the only way I could forsee getting doubled was if I repped the FD - I'd pushed a draw on the flop already. Comeonphish gave it the full bank before calling with bottom two and I was at first surprised that he tanked and then thought that the only hand he would do this with was bottom two and then wondered whether I would/should call after thinking about it for this long. I would with his bankroll but I think it's pretty close. Top two I think is a instacall.

Yea him having to think it over there is pretty normal. Top two is insta call, bottom two or top and bottom is a little harder, but i still probably would. Just like he did.

in a re-buy with 5.5k i'm MUCH tighter than i am with 3k, so my calling range here is...

set, straight, Q10c - call
top 2pr, AQc 102c - think about it and prolly call
bottom 2pr, Q2c, A2c - think about it and fold
AK, K10 - fold
