88 in SB preflop

[Kristian]

Button has been raising a fair amount of hands preflop. No reads on BB other than he is not crazy.

It's early. This is for the most part not a real raise. See the flop and decide from there.

Later,

I think calling here puts you in a bad position on the flop. I'd reraise to 350 or so, fold to a reraise, and push all in on all but the scariest boards.

rereaising here is dangerous because you practically commit the rest of your chips by doing so. Unless the b is a complete maniac who you think could easily have a worse hand and will play back with it I would call and take a flop.

I agree.

[Pete H]

I'd call here too.

I wouldn't reraise as I'd fold if raised back. I just want to see the flop cheaply.

I think folding to a reraise is a mistake. The button is smallish so he may very well be willing to race any hand. So you might fold to 66,AJ,KQ etc etc. And folding to those hands is terrible
