    Never read any stickies or announcements
    zook calls.

    No way you are folding here, and pushing (with any hand), on such a dry board just doesn't really make sense, and lets your opponent play perfect poker.

    Play some poker on the turn, and what you do depends a lot on reads, turn card, action, etc.

    Turn ($20) MP1 bets $10. zook pushes. eh?

    Sounds right, Lukie. I pushed over top of the re-raise, which I knew was wrong as soon as I did it. I didn't take enough time to think. He insta-called and flipped over 77. It's going to be tough for me to get away from this hand, but maybe I can lose less money by calling him down.
