I should sneak into the money without too much trouble if I lay the cards down, but I have to put the big stack on either a mid pocket pair up to jacks, or AJ, AK. In this situation, agianst an opponent who hasn't been playing too tight, is this read about right? Should I have feared AA or KK? Would this be a call to make again in the future or one to steer clear of?
