Default Re: $5 multi close to the money

The best way to play would have definetly been to reraise preflop, probably push.

But lets play it the other way an say u only called his raise preflop.

The K shows and you bet it out, not having shown any strength preflop. He reraises.

You say he has been playing solid. He raised from 2nd position 10 handed, which represents a strong hand from a solid player. This could mean a big pair (AA, KK), AK, KQ, maybe even KJ. All of these hands have u killed. Although many situations would call for a shot at this pot, its not worth the risk.

Re-raise preflop with your QQ and avoid having to give your chips away with no contest post flop.
