playing against the \"I\'ve got aces\" reraise with a medium/small pair
I swear, 90% of the time someone puts in the "just a little more" reraise early in the tourney, he's got aces or kings. It's easy to read as a big pair. I don't know when this play became the standard, but everyone seems to do it now.
For example, say I've got 88 in middle position. I've noticed that if I raise 3x the big blind (60) in a 10/20 round and get a caller followed by a reraise of say 200, that's a huge red flag that he's usually got a big pair. Elementary poker, right? My question is this: With 1500 starting chips, assuming we both have around this amount, is it correct to always call the 140 with implied odds that I will stack him if I hit my set even though I know I am way behind? I think it is. My experience has been that if I hit the set, I will stack an overpair almost every time. Yes, there are (extremely) rare instances where I run up against set over set, but it's rare enough to ignore. What do you guys think? |

Stop raising with 88 in mid position in the early levels.

I enter every pot I'm involved in with a 3x raise if I'm first to enter.

you will find AKs raising in these situations a lot of times too.

Well you just were on about the early rounds. Stop raising 88 in mid position in the early rounds, then you won't get in this situation. It's hardly rocket science is it!?
But if you don't want to listen fine. Keep doing it. Keep spewing chips everywhere. It's not my game or my $, it's yours. |

maybe I should just start a separate forum |
