View Full Version : Strange Limp Re-raise


12-16-2005, 11:45 PM
104 left, 99 pay, Villain and I both have well above average stacks.

I hadn't been at the table long, but I'd been fairly tight. I'd raised a couple of times and taken the blinds, and twice I'd folded to a re-raise.

Villain recently lost 20% of his stack to a bad beat, J's versus 5's. He seemed to take it well, I said, "Sorry to see that," and he responded, "np." However, he made a big overbet all in the next hand, raised the hand after that, and pushed the flop.

I usually give credit to limp re-raises, but I thought that Villain would have raised a big pair given that he'd played so aggressively the last few hands. What range would you give him here? Do I have the odds to call with TT?
