Default Re: Is pushing bad here?

I'd call with position. If no A or K hits on the flop and he has AA or KK im still going broke. But, If an A or K does hit, I can get away to a big reraise or re-reraise.

Obviously you can't fold here but don't push.

Fiery this was me in the hand with you. Imo this is a bad push, from my point of view you are only getting called by a better hand aa kk at this stage of the game. I checked my histories because i couldnt recall the hand and found that i folded jj. My point being i will play aa kk the same way and probably call w kk. Good hand either way.....glad to see you won it ....Good luck

On a range of AK+, rarely AQ, this is a call, evaluate flop spot since you can a see a flop so cheaply.
However, there is some chance he is a donk, who is donking it up with Ax as I have seen AJ and A5 do this at the 215s.

If he had made it a 3x reraise, I could see a fold without a read that he was a donk.
I think you are technically getting pot odds to chase a set, so call.

Explain....In my view i have a strong hand that i need to define right now. I Represent aces or kings with this reraise and if he calls the flop raise i have position. I dont see how you can fault a reraise in this spot and a fold to a push here. Opinions
