Dealing with frequent preflop reraises.
This is the state of affairs currently on the Pokerstars at. $1-$2 and $2-$4.
Most TAGs seem to be conforming to a re-raise to $28 where the opening raise is $8. At $2-$4 this is from $16 to $54. NO ONE is 4 betting these re-raises. I think I have seen a 4 bet with over 100BB stacks only three times in a month all by the same player and 2 of those times he was 4 betting smallish with Jacks!! I am definitely playing very badly in situations where I've been re-riased. I'm calling too often where I end up folding on the flop or get into trouble. The problem is I know I'm being re-raised by KQ and 66 a lot, especially from the SB position which seems to have become a second button of sorts. Assuming stacks of 125BBs or more. Answer the following questions. 1) What range of hands are you calling with where you've opened to $8 from the CO and the Villain 24/18 reraises to $28 from the SB. 2) Does your range change if villain is on the button. 3) What is your own current re-raising range against the same opponent from the blinds and from the button? 4) How often are you 4 betting and how much are you raising when you do?

Re: Dealing with frequent preflop reraises.
i start calling with a wider range in position which often includes 88or99 + and good broadway hands.
reraising ranges really depend on the villain and situation, but i reraise anything playable that isnt easily dominated that plays well postflop at times. it all depends on how active the villain has been and how active i have been, gameflow, etc. 4 betting light on occasion. this can be a 4 bet bluff with any 2 cards, Or near the top of my range looking to get it in.

Re: Dealing with frequent preflop reraises.
generally i either tighten up my opening range or open up my 4betting range.
also, you can take some flops w/ smallish pairs (and some other weak hands) in 3bet pots, but you have to be willing to make some moves occasionally to make it +EV.
