Only if you plan on a turn lead. That minraise's a screamer.

[/ QUOTE ]It wasnt a min raise. It was a small raise though. He was in the bb so i was hoping he hit two pair or maybe had 33. I dont see what else he would check/raise me with unless he thought i was trying to steal it.

OK then.

You made a small re-reraise hoping it was gonna be set over set? You realize how likely that probability is, right? More likely he was trying to steal your c-bet here, maybe with a strong 6 or middle pair. You reraise that, never mind, sir, you've got an A at least, nh, fold. Flatcall, lead turn if he checks to you or raise his turn bet good.

Ok thanks. After i raised i knew i shouldve just called him.

No worries. Always a good idea to keep an eye on his stack size, you're both deep enough to take it to another street.

No draws. I even like to delay call in this position to induce a feeling of strength for the villian. Let the clock roll for 5-10 seconds. Just flat call. If he bets the turn it will be more then 500, and since you have 2500 left push. (also delayed)
