Default But what a small raises you\'ve made - 4/180 FT

Villain has been tight and according to OPR is one of the better players at the FT. Am I a luckbox or is this PF call okay?

FWIW - When I called the re-raise I told myself I'd have to hit a monster flop to continue.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t1600 (6 handed) internettexasholdem.com

SB (t31714)
BB (t57639)
Hero (t26525)
MP (t16567)
CO (t90759)
Button (t46796)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t4100</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">SB raises to t6600</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls t2500.

Flop: (t13500) 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t5000</font>, <font color="#CC3333">SB raises to t20000</font>, Hero calls t14850 (All-In).

He gave you huge pot odds, something like 5.2:1. This is a must call, correct?

I don't have my Pokerstove on me, but I'd say he's raising TT+,AK,AQ. On the flop, I'm saying he's c/r'ing JJ+ here.

Doesn't villain's plan to check-raise the flop after taking the lead with his tiny pre-flop re-raise strike anybody as pretty odd/bad under almost any circumstances?

With this RR and a smooth call hero will check through 99% of the time here with a big A...

they do it with JJ-QQ alot to protect against an A or K hitting the turn....
