Reraise preflop...buddy usually in his moods lately calls anyway. I dont really get why ud buy in for 400 against these 2 players in particular. They are always so deep and ur only move i feel is reraising premium hands preflop.

oops reread ur post..."I don't think that calling here needs to be debated."
Does everyone else agree with this?....i play this game a little and ive noticed bbuddy has a tendency to call reraises very frequently esp against shortstacks. so i guess the ? is do u want to get more $ in ahead or after they flop the nuts with their 46 offsuit?

I generally don't even bother replying to posts that contain a line like that, anymore. In nearly 100% of cases, what the poster is really saying is, "I know this is the mistake that led to all my subsequent mistakes in the hand, caused the hand to be harder to play and possibly cost me my stack but I don't want to talk about it."

Brilliant! In any case, 240 preflop, push flop. Or check behind flop, get all in on turn if you think he may bluff turn if you check flop. Not re-raising preflop is criminal with a raise and a call in front of you.

Bbuddy raises to $80 in EP, folds to Hero, Hero calls $80, H@LLINGOL calls $80, Button folds, blinds fold

yeah, i can't read. but my point is still correct. just negate the 'and a call' part.

I don't think that line implies that he thinks he made a mistake preflop.

Yes, it does or he wouldn't have mentioned it at all. Have you ever seen a post that said, "I had the stone cold nuts on the river and I was last to act so I bet to get maximum value out of my hand"?
