Default Re: Short Handed hand..



Reraise or fold, don't just call. Your hand is partially dead with a 10 out and your straight potential compromized by a 9 and a K showing. If the bring in is a decent player, he has at least a pair with an Ace kicker. Even if you make 2 pairs, you are sandwiched by 2 players with obvious better kickers. In addition, it may get reraised after you call 2 bets cold. So a fold here with you having invested only $5 so far is OK. But a reraise here looks very tempting to me.You want to get it heads up if you can or give yourself the chance of explioting a scare card for you on the 5th. If you pair your door card or get another club or a J, your board is going to look scary for anybody with only a pair or even 2 small pairs.
