22 - Steal attempt w/55 reraised
I had been playing solid values, hadn't shown down any junk, Villan seems to be a good player.
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (6 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx MP (t1085) CO (t2035) Button (t790) BB (t1950) Hero (t1295) UTG+1 (t845) Preflop: Hero is BB with 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. Hero raises to t500, 4 folds, BB is all in for 1950, hero? In retrospect, I had been giving off a tight image and was under very little blind pressure, as was villan. I assume I should lay this down, right? Thanks for any thoughts, Doc |

Re: 22 - Steal attempt w/55 reraised
Yeah, you should lay it down.
I'm not sure I'd want to raise this UTG here, just because a UTG raise doesn't give off the same vibe at a 22 that it does with good players. Like...people will still be more than willing to come over the top with 88/AJs/KQs etc. Since you say he seems like a solid player, you have to assume he has some respect for your UTG raise, thus his reraise should be a pretty big hand. At best a coinflip, at worst total destruction. |

Hero stops being a tard and raising 500 with 55 for a start, and folds quickly. What the hell are you thinking?

I admit to being a tard here. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] (and most other places too, come to think of it)
How good does my position here have to be to make this a reasonable steal attempt? Thanks for any replies, Doc |

Re: 22 - Steal attempt w/55 reraised
Only way I'm playing that hand is if I'm the button and one person has already limped in. Otherwise, fold preflop. Only t150 in the pot, wait wait wait.
