I'm guessing a medium pp that didn't trip up. 99?

My ratio is 77-JJ , even QQ.

my guess goes to 77

I agree with snowmans range of hands and 77 would make for a good post.

yup, he had jj.

should i have just called his re-raise instead of going all in? ie: stop and go

Just my opinion, and I know nothing compared to pretty much every other poster on the board: First off, I'm a little confused about how much you guys had in chips (If I'm reading the post correctly, it says you had $4200 or so in chips at the beginning of the hand, yet you went all in for $6200 or so?). Unless I'm totally confused, which is definitely a possibility, you have to either fold or push (I'm assuming a call of his reraise would pretty much commit you). So I guess it depends on whether or not you put him on a pocket pair and whether or not you're willing to go up against a pocket pair w/AK if you are fortunate enough to be able to put him on a pocket pair. I'd probably be going all in myself, unless I really felt good about the chances of the guy having a pocket pair, in which case I might save my chips for a battle where I have better odds.

bison's hand converter added stuff to my hand so i had to edit some things to make it look neat. i might have deleted some #'s in the wrong places.

but basically, we started w/about the same stack size. he min raised, i raised 2.5BB, he raised again, and i went all-in.

after his re-raise, i put him on ak, AQ suited, or mid pocket pair.

i was also pretty sure he wasnt going to fold if i re-re-raised all-in.

the more i think about it, the more i should have done a stop and go, no?

No reason to go all-in re re raise. At that point you are very likely up against a PP which makes your hand a DRAWING hand. You need to switch to minimize chips in the pot and maximize viewing cards until your draw hits/misses.

There are still lots of ways to get chips from AQ post flop.

Well if he knew the flop, he should have folded.

I think you're trying to get more play out of your stack than you really have in a typical Party sitngo HU situation. Stop-n-gos don't really work as much because the pot is always huge relative to your stack. In this hand, I would either call the minraise or just move in. Id usually just move in; there's no shame in losing with AKo in these types of high blind HU situations imo.
