Default Re: Huge stack vs aggressive Chip Leader (Party 500k).

If he's done this to me 3 times already, then I'm not raising his BB here without a hand that I'm ready to push over his reraise with. What was your plan when you raised?

Given your desciption of the last hour, this might not be a bad hand to go to war with. After all, he knows that you've folded 3 times now and a re-reraise push represents a very strong hand.

One of the things I'd base this decision on is how long was left till the table broke. If I'm on table 14 with 150 left, I might pass this one up. If I'm on table 5, then I'm going to have to tangle with him sooner or later...



Looking at the exact numbers again, his reraise almost looks like it's begging for a call. What were his other reraises like? Were they about the same relative size, or were they larger (i.e., designed to push you out of the pot)?

My plan was to push, although once confronted with the decision it wasn't so easy. I did ultimately push though.

Right.
Like I said, we were on Table 2, so I felt like I had to send him the message that I wasn't going to roll over for him.
