Default Re: how do you get over hands like this?

I guess I'm the only one who makes this call. This is limit after all. You're talking about 1/4 of your chips, sure, but WTF? Do you want to win or cash? I play to win. I play to acquire as many chips as possible. If you hit the flop, it pays off. If you don't, you still have 3,600 chips.

Easy call in a tournament.

If you're not going to fold you should raise. Calling is your worst option, IMO. You could fold out the original raiser leaving you heads up in position with the over-aggressive bully. And even if he doesn't fold (which is likely) you should have an easier time playing postflop being the aggressor in position than just a tag-a-long.
