Default Re: AA...do I get greedy?

Is there any other hand you would consider just calling with pf in this spot?

the answer to this question means nothing unless you think his opponent is capable of a third level of thought...which i doubt he is.

I don't know about 3rd level...The guy's thinking, "wow this tight player just raised preflop then only called off like a quarter of his stack. looks like he's trying to trap with a monster to me." if garland pushes he could likely to think, "oh this bastard has AK and wants me to fold my pocket two's, good thing they are a favorite over AK, I call."
Not that this amount of reasoning is certain for the other player...but it's definitely possible and worth considering.

smiley,
if i see a 3rd raise from a tight player over an all=in, i am most DEFINATELY not putting him on AK.neither are most players here...let them see a flop and then hang themselves when they catch a piece or decide that their overpair is just too good to fold. They're much more likely to make this mistake then they are to put us on AK.
regards,
crosse

Yeah, perhaps I'm way off, but the re-raise smooth call looks worse to me then a push here (if I were villian). BUT the ultimate trick is to try and get a read on how deep you think your opponent thinks about the game. How standard is this thought at this level. It doesn't appear like something too advanced. Perhaps I give more credits to my opponents then I should though.

I would push here. If you're read on MP3 is correct though, then I'd call. I think it's pretty read dependent between call/push.
