My experience is that this means PLEASE CALL ME! and that usually means I HAVE AA OR KK!!

Is is it too tight to just let this go PF?

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (9 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

BB (t1208)

Preflop: Hero is Button with K/images/graemlins/heart.gif, A/images/graemlins/club.gif.

HOw has BB accumulated chips, if he hasn't had a showdown, i might even push-- if he's been playing good hands OR gettin lucky in the blinds, i fold.

I don't see how you can not push here at that particular buyin, unless you have a read, which you don't.

I've seen people make this play with all sorts of hands at the 33s, hands like 99,AQ and KQ quite often. If you fold you are left with 605, which isn't desperate, but not great. Given you have no reads, I'd put BB on a broader range of hands and push.

I don't think folding or calling are bad either, but I don't think I could do it.

I think I would call the reraise. You have position, no reason to get too aggressive preflop. I don't think you have any folding equity.

Um, don't listen to anyone else. 33 and below, this most certainly means please call me. the higher the buyin, the more likely that is the case. Fold. This is almost 80% AA/KK. Trust me on this one.

Edit: forgot this is Friday night, and I'm drunk (where is xPuns1her???), bump that down to 60%. Still, people are pushing 99 and KQ, not slightraising. The worst you're up against, unless you found a drunk donk, is QQ/JJ, in which case you should still strongly consider folding.

I'm with you (I think). I have no problem folding this.

AQ or less, he's calling
99-QQ he's reraising all-in (maybe even small PP)

almost always going to find AA/KK there.

...besides, I don't think you can afford another T100 to fold to his certain lead out on a flop lacking A or K.

..and if you push? you might have 2 overs, but still a coin toss.

HUGE disparity between the couple with chips and 'the rest'. you have 6 more hands before the blinds come around.
