Re: yes, i do
 

If you have read HoH2, Harrington talks about this play I think on page like 34 or 35. When, Why and How you should do it.

Example of it working to perfection.. (with Kings)

I can't get 1-2 callers calling deep without a limp/reraise from EP.

ummm....why not?

sometimes your opponents have good cards too.


At the WSOP ME this year.

Blinds 50/100.
UTG guy has about 12.5k and I have about 19k.

UTG guy bets 300
I have KK and raise to 1000
UTG guy re-raises to 5000
I push all-in and he calls with AA.

His AA holds up.


I've had similar experiences. You are just hoping that someone else has a decent hand and want to challenge you.
Sometimes you get that someone. Other times everyone folds because they are all looking at garbage.


The limp-reraise screams AA or KK.
Although I believe some sophisticated players can pull the ol' limp-reraise to INDUCE a fold when they are against an opponent whom they believe will read it as 'the typical' AA or KK play.
