Quick preflop decision
Button is extremely LAG preflop and has been opening a lot of hands in the three orbits or so that I've been here. He's like 80/50 preflop. He tried a button steal to 50 (5/10 blinds) against my SB a few hands ago and I made it 200 with AQ and he folded. He also opened AQ and called a shortstack (50 BB) that pushed over a caller.
Anyway, I have about 1350 and he has me covered. Folded to him in Button and he makes it 50 (standard open from what I can tell). Reraise or call? I don't know much about his postflop play, but most of these super-LAG guys play pretty much the same (holding on to hands way too long and betting too much).

Re: Quick preflop decision
Oh, in that case, I don't know. I just wanted to be a smart ass :P
I would guess call, as a raise makes it way hard to play if called

Re: Quick preflop decision
This is right out of a hand from the Ciaffone/Reuben book. They recommend you reraise preflop and bet I think 3/4 of the pot on the flop no matter what. When I get home, I will post the hand. This strategy has worked quite well for me with med. pairs OOP against a late pos. raise.

It's just here with a small pair, potentially calling and stacking him off is >+EV.

I've been having pretty good luck with getting them to fold on the flop so maybe I should do it a little more with any 2. Thanks.
