Default Re: Fold here?

The raiser has a lot of chips, so he really could be holding any 2 cards here, IMO. Sometimes I jump to the conclusion that someone with a lot of chips early is a maniac. Assuming he is non-maniac, Scuba is probably right, but I'd pretty damn pissed if I had to lay this down.

Phil, you wouldn't be as pisssed as OP because you wouldn't have made such a large bet. His original bet is the mistake, calling the reraise is compounding it.

Lose a bet, no big deal. Lose a pot, disasterous.

Yeah, maybe you are right. At first I thought fold, then push.

There's always the possibility that he got those chips by making large bets when he had the best of it and got called.
