Default Re: $215 blind play

(Saw your other post, figured I'd reply to this one too.)

I wrote a response saying I liked the line, but it seemed risky. After thinking about it some more, I'm not sure I like the turn push. Once you re-raise him and he calls, I think the likelihood of him having 2-pair or better will be very high. I think you're beat a good % of the time here. An alternate line that I like is just calling his flop raise, then leading out on the turn. Fold to a re-raise. If he's really not scared of the ace, you'll know this way without risking your whole stack.

I think raising preflop may make this hand easier as well. I'd probably raise about 1/2 the time.
