I just had to crash this thread for a second.

Re: First Post...AQ
I think calling the raise is the my least preferred option. You have gained no information by calling.
My standard approach to this situation is to fold to a solid player and push if it’s a weak player (This looks like a weak players pathetic steal attempt). I also like the re-raise option in order to gain some more information (even thou I hardly ever do it in this situation.) The reason I would fold (with no read) is I like your stack size, it can be used to greater effect when you are the raiser. |

Re: First Post...AQ
Is anybody really folding AQ here to a miniraise from a stealing position (the button)? That seems to me to be about as weak-tight as you can get. Unless you have a strong enough read to put him on EXACTLY AA, how can you possibly not be getting odds to see a flop?

Re: First Post...AQ
I also lose all my chips on this flop, but that's because I bet the flop, get raised, and push. I don't want a ten to see a free card, so I bet.

Very easy push PF.
AQ has to see the whole board and you're OOP. Pushing PF negates your positional disadvantage. |

Re: First Post...AQ
I would probably just reraise all in PF, but the way you played it is OK.

In addition to the fact that pushing is clearly the best play, I'd be looking for an excuse to push and let this donkey know that min-raising my blind is not going to be tolerated. |

Re: First Post...AQ
Wow thanks for all of the help guys!
This tournament was a $11 buyin if it helps anyone. I knew the guy was solid player from before, but I could just not but him on something like KK. I guess I might need to learn calling his reraise might not be the best thing to do just to find out what he has. |
