Default Re: Set of 8\'s .

this one's tough...there's alot going on here

> Preflop - completing with 88 is OK with me, your out of position in a large field
> Flop check - at first i wondered why your slowplaying trips but this is prime checkraise territory with so many people ahead of you
> 1st Flop reraise - absolutely, UTG+1 is bigstack so his flop bet was weak plus he limped preflop so i put him on a high split pair or draw
> Calling reraise from CO - Whats chip leader limping late position that would cause him to flat call and then reraise with? KQ, AQ, maybe 98spades or K9spades...any others??

(I can just see the time bank running out at this point)

So there's a whole pile of non outs in the deck and CO may have very well tied you up in a great trap but you're pot committed man and the pots huge, you gotta call.
