10/25 AK hand. I don't like the way I played it.

ZeeJustin -

I have learned a lot from your posts. Could you tell me why you would reraise to $225 preflop? It seems like that defines your hand, but is not enough to win it right there.

My standard preflop reraise is approx. 2.5x the initial raise. A large majority of the time that I reraise, I have the best hand, so I don't always want them to fold.

He also has position and it will most likely get the pot heads up...
