Most people's re-raising range out of the SB when there is going to be a flop is pretty tight....TT+,AQ+

I fold as I'm behind the range and am not in a desperate chip situation.

Woodguy

If the button and the SB are 2+2ers in the challenge, I may very well shove for value.

But against standard opponents, fold.

am I the only one who thinks this is an easy push against somewhat aggressive opponents. Button might have ATC and SB mostly has 2 high cards + nice overlay etc

chh,

I think you are behind here most of the time given the action thus far. Obviously not in this case but most of the time yes a fold here is good.

I like shoving the turn here. I don't understand why he'd raise a blank turn but only call the flop. He might have put you on a bluff and tried to steal back on the turn I guess. I don't want to see a black card or any high card on the river. Get it all-in.
