ehh... I'd raise at least 3/4 of the pot on the flop.

I repop push for all my chips preflop because people are donks. But what do you think of the fold?

seems ok, its a rebuy tho so just shove preflop and let some donk with AJ call

I would too then I'd be especially suspicious of callers

yeah, people are crazy in cheap re-buys, they hope to double up with K 10 offsuit and hands that are similar. Play ver very aggressively (overbetting) with strong hands b/c at Stars you will almost always get someone to play with you

BUT IS THE FOLD OK? I know, I should probably just get all the money in preflop with aces, but IS THE PLAY AFTER THE FLOP OK???

Ugh.

Why check the flop? Your hand isn't nearly good enough to slow play, and you have no reason to suspect a K. You've got 3 callers, and at this point I'd be looking to narrow the field more than my preflop raise did. (PS. I would have only raised to about 80, so I guess I'd have five callers.)

SB could have been trying to check-raise the flop with a K, but his small bet looks more like a steal attempt. I'd raise to about 500.

River: This is what weak play gets you. I do this to myself all the frickin' time. Some bozo bets tiny on the flop and turn, and I call along with 2nd/3rd pair, figuring him for a steal or (commonly) flush draw if the flop is two-suited. Then he pushes on the river (flush draw doesn't make it) and his bet reeks of a desperation bluff, but I have to fold, and I have nobody to blame but my weak self for not raising earlier.

In this case I'd call. You have top two pair and his play looks like a bluff... or a monster... in which case, rebuy!

If he has a K or 33, you were going to lose all your chips regardless. If he has QQ or JJ, he was probably not folding, and you got outdrawn. If he has AT, T9s this is where you could have pushed him out with a healthy flop bet. Also consider that he may have something like QJ and was probing the turn in case you had AQ.

Edited so as not to appear more results-oreiented than I already am.
