Yes but ok sometimes you know your opponent....against an anon opponent I have a hard time folding KK ever, but against someone you know? I mean sometimes they can only have one hand.

gramps,

This will be your downfall in the first round of the STTFHUC. Your KK will finally run into my obv AA and you will go home crying like a little baby.

Oh Yugo, be forewarned of the cruelty of the two-outer on the River with all the chips already at the center of the table...

Raising to 200!, I thought I taught him better than that. He's my brother and I would of folded Ks in a second to him in that position. And I've only laid down Kings once in 5000 games(100% correct so far)

Mud. What does your brother do? I figure he's on pace for about 3500 SNGs this month, or better than 100 per day.

This looks like a fold to me. I can't imagine what other hand a good player would make this reraise with. However, I also can't imagine a good player ever making this reraise. Given your info, folding seems to be the best play, but i would prolly be 20 tabling and call and get stacked on the flop.

100/day sounds about right(family vacation hurt December). I'm trying to get him to sign up here, but I'll answer for him for now. He's an author who can make a lot more money playing poker. You think he plays a lot now, watch out for January.

Oh and he informs me that he thinks the QQ hand was a quick raise because he was running out of time. Not how he would play it normally obviously.

what about flat calling the 200 and watching the action?

you'd have a good case for folding this one when it got back to you...
