This wasn't a $10 but a $5 on Party.
Ten handed. One limper to me in MP. I raise to T45 (3BB) with KK.
Two folds then a reraise to T75. One cold caller of the reraise, and then the limper calls the raise. Everyone else folds.
So, with 3 players other than me in the pot - and each of them calling the reraise, what do I do? The $10+1 strategy says to go all-in if reraised...but what's everyone views on this when it's not a heads up situation?
Anyway, I went all-in and was called by all three players(!)... a KK (the original reraiser), a QQ and 55 (limper).
And the board showed... 8JQ22. So the pocket Queens won it. I'd love to know the chances of two players both having KK and another having QQ!?
I'm not posting this as a bad beat moan... I would just like everyones opinions on the situation. For what it's worth I think I played it correctly. The reraise before the flop didn't suggest AA. I think it would have been slowplayed with a flat call or pushed. The one hand I was really worried about was AK.
NOTE: Sorry for writing out the hand, but the hand converter didn't seem to like this hand for some reason (nor did I!).
NOTE 2 : sorry - forgot to say I had KK originally!
