Re: AA Fold?
I say call and hope that he has an overpair, rather than a set. I agree that the reraise is for value -- he has a made hand. A set or overpair more likely than two pair, since those would be cruddy...

If you take a given hand, say JTs, it wins or loses a certain percentage of the time. Now let's take just the set of wins. Sometimes you win with top pair, other times with a straight, once in a...

How about this
The house actively seeks to identify all-in abusers.
