that is an awfully big bring in for 10-20. was this a home game?


the reraise is probably not the best play. against an ace i think the best play is to just call and bet out. if he has aces then you save a bet and you dont want the bring in to fold since you have to improve anyway. but i cant fault a raise if he is in a steal position.


there was a post recently on another forum about the throwing fastballs essay. this hand may have been taken directly from it. this is a situation where you should consider checking behind him. tough spot but i would probably bet here to avoid the free card.but its a close call.on fifth street when you get checkraised you should clearly fold.
