Home Game, aggressive player on button
At a home game last night, there was a kid who I had never played with before who had been very aggressive and raised almost every hand (raising with AK down to J9), and had taken down numerous pots without showing. He has the big stack at the table with about $40, I have about $20.
I'm dealt AQs, and with 2 callers in a 10 handed game (blinds .25 - .50) I raise to $2, and the aggressive kid who is on the button (one behind me) reraises to $6, blinds and two limpers fold. What would you do in this position? Fold when you know he will have position and chips to play with over you throughout the hand, call and hope to get lucky, or raise all-in and hope he folds a marginal hand?
Results below:
I reraised all-in to make a stand, I wasn't going to let the big stack push me around anymore, plus I figured I had the best hand since he had raised every pot he played in. He calls and flips over AA, I was a big underdog. But luckily the cards came TJ4-8-K, and I made a straight. Lucky me :D
