I just moved to this table my stats uploaded for a few of the players opener was a very aggessive player 20/15 over 170 hands I found out after the hand he's 2+2er. SB was like 20/12 over 75ish hands notes he hasn't done anything to deserve them I guess from other tourneys.

I like.

How else could you possibly play it?

[Fiksdal]

I like the 3-bet, especially since UTG+1 is loose, and SB called. You have a decent hand, and probably plenty of FE.

SB is full of [censored]. I'd say he never has you dominated here. I think he'd do this with hands like 55-TT, AJ/AQ, KQs. Reasonably easy call of his push I think.

thats a pretty loose range you gave there

i dont think this is easy at all..and i really dont think SB is full of [censored]. i think this is AA a decent % of the time, but its not like thats the ONLY hand in his range..theres too much money in there for me to let it go, but i think it's a lot closer than it seems

[NoXiousNuts]

Buyin? If this is a 109+ or A 55R+ I would bet on this being pure spew. I would know, as I have perfected the art of turning the 3rd hour chiplead into yet another OOTM finish, doing it no less than 10 times in the last month with hyper-aggressive stuff like this.

You have to call even if we give villain a tight range of 99+,AKs,AKo. I'm doing this off the top of my head but I think you are calling 5400 to win approximately 11600 at that point and have 32% equity against that range. However, I think initial 2800 bet is not correctly sized given the effective stack sizes. Why not a smaller initial reraise or a push?

[NoahSD]

Explain reraise size please. Pushing's better.

[shaundeeb]

reason for my reraise if opener folds and SB calls which happens sometimes I have a little less than a PSB to shove on any flop he checks to me.

[NoXiousNuts]

Yeah, that makes sense but in this case you've priced yourself in to calling if SB pushes so assuming you don't want to flat call this and take the flop, you need to shove initially.

[omaha]

I tend to be a loose raiser as well, but i will only rr with the goods, unless someone has been rr me light.

WHat does sb need here, in order to call a raise, then basically shove into someone who has rr a raiser and a caller? I think he has one of the dreaded three monsters, and slowplayed them the first time round.

[ZJ123]

ugg, what does he push with though, that ur not dominated by?

maybe TT or JJ

but most of time, i think he has AK KK or AA.

It close though with all the money in the pot.

but i dont see how ur ever ahead.
