I like because it doesn't look like AA it looks like you have a random hand your donking around with.

This is what you miss, or at least I do when I try to 8 table. If I wasn't in the previous hand I wouldn't have necesarily noticed that he just got crippled.

That being said, it is a good play because the BB's only option is to push. By calling you were able to trap the EP limper. But you already know that, which is why you posted it.

NH sir

He fo sho won't have much of an idea what you have, on the other hand, it seems a little early for this razzle dazzle type stuff but what do I know.

Lets ask Bones.

[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] It is beautiful. No one will know what you have and you have some nice trapped money in there. Then again, if it doesnt get pushed behind you, you just limped AA in a 5ish person pot.

Oh well. NH.

Note that I already have tripled up, so if BB doesn't reopen the betting I can:

A) get away cheaply and still have a ton of chips

or

B) Double someone up and still have plenty of chips.

I think it's a little too cute. A reraise preflop still disguises your hand as you have a huge stack and most players will assume you are just trying to bully. The extra 250 chips you got into the pot pf are not worth the chance of BB checking his option when you just call.

No stats. I have been flying without them since getting back from vegas for 2 reasons, one is that I want as little running as possible because party is so [censored] up and the other is the z32 convinced me that they are unnecessary. I haven't missed HUD numbers at all thus far but that could be due to the fact that I'm only 4 tabling due to the button malfunctions.
