Default Re: Couple of independent $22+2 hands

I hate a reraise here. Pushing and calling both seem OK to me, but reraising seems to cause nothing but trouble.

I agree, I don't remember mentioning re-raising at all though? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Actually this isn't quite true.

[/ QUOTE ]Which part?
[ QUOTE ]
By ICM if the first guy calls (let's assume he will, because he was the one who raised) you would need his original raise to be in the region of 88+, AQo+, AJs+. That's quite loose for an UTG raise.

[/ QUOTE ]I don't know about quite loose. And, I'd bet that quite a few people in the 22s will also raise UTG with KQs, and probably some other random holdings.

If he calls with AKs or whatever, it's not as good for you as you might think.

[/ QUOTE ]If he calls with AKs, it's OK. Maybe not as good as it would be if he folded, but still good.

Pot odds aren't always the whole equation. (If you are called you have to be win 47%-ish of the time)

[/ QUOTE ]Well, TT wins >50% against two unpaired overcards. The question is what mix of overcards and overpairs will be actually be making the call with.

Still, I maintain that given these pot odds, I'd be happy with a real coin flip.
