PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (8 handed) converter

UTG ($27.65)
UTG+1 ($37.70)
MP1 ($105.60)
MP2 ($107.05)
CO ($97.90)
Button ($34.85)
SB ($96.80)
Hero ($83.30)

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
2 folds, MP1 calls $1, MP2 calls $1, 2 folds, SB completes, Hero raises to $5, MP1 calls $4, MP2 raises to $107.05, SB folds, Hero ....

Villain is the 2nd limper in this pot, ...it just didn't make sense for AA or KK. I felt he could be doing this with a wide range to steal the $11 in the pot. This kind of weird messed up move is almost always a fish's way of saying he has AA or KK right?

Well, what kinda read/stats were you getting from psycho limper? I think calling here is dependent on a good read, and even then there are better spots to pull this off.

Also, I'm usually thankful when I see a big raise like this from a fish that believes AA and KK are bulletproof. Saves me from wasting any money on those tricky high pair (QQ, JJ, 1010).

Weird hand alright. What's your table image and what's villian been doing.

Without a read I have to fold this and make a note on the limp reraise.

Weird? Yes
Horrible? Yes
AA or KK? Almost always.

Busting him with 7 2o next time? Priceless

You see this every one in a while from the really dumb ones.

Thought process: "I have AA! Hmm, this guy limped, I shall trap him by limping! Oh, the button raised? Oh well he obviously has an awesome hand that will call me when I go all in!"

What I really hate is when some psycho lag finally limps for once, and you have say, pocket 3s and want to try to flop a set, but then the BB minraises, and the lag suddenly lights up for a big reraise. That's annoying as hell. I just feel like shaking the BB, we could have seen a flop dumbass! now we have to fold!

Sorry, I wlll post reads if I have them, but if I don't it usually means tha he just joined the table or he hasn't done anything so bad as to make me remember him. Since I didn't have him read as a wacky, lag player I think this one is probably a fold. Though, in the actually situation, my curiosity as it so many times does, go the best of me and I called after almost running out of time. He had the AA of course.
