Blinds are 300/600 with a 50 chip ante. I open raise for 1800. It folds to the big blind, who makes it 3600.

What do you do?

sorry...no reads on villain, just moved to this table three hands ago.

Generally, when I am in villian's position and I make a raise like this I got a strong hand and am attempting to provoke an all in. I would muck here. While its possible villian is doing this with a small PP, most people I see that reraise with a small or medium pocket pair tend to reraise all in, so its far more probable you are in a coin flip or dominated.

I would probably fold here, you can get out easy now with a loss of three BB's which is fixable with a couple blind steals and I don't think you are in the position yet where you need to be pushing all in with 10's.

The alternative is to push. I don't think calling is good here since overcards will scare you and there is a good chance he is doing this with a better PP.

Personally I think folding here is the best move absent a read.

I just called. The flop was 972, and when he pushed I made a crying call and he turned over aces. You're right, I should've mucked, and I'm not even being results oriented.
