    Default AKo from sb

    Villain is a decent, tight, multi-tabling regular, 16/7/8 over a ton of hands. I've been aggressive and active at this table. C-bet here? How much? Plan if called or raised?

    Full Tilt Poker - No Limit Holdem Ring game - Blinds: $1/$2 - 9 players - Converter

    Stack sizes:
    UTG: $43
    UTG+1: $249
    MP1: $96.10
    MP2: $187
    MP3: $212.85
    CO: $367.45
    Button: $261.85
    Hero: $235.05
    BB: $384

    Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is SB with K A
    UTG folds, UTG+1 raises to $8, 3 folds, CO calls, Button calls, Hero raises to $42, BB folds, UTG+1 calls, 2 folds.

    Flop: 6 6 5 ($102, 2 players)
    Hero...

    Why to $42? Was this your standard reraise size?

    It's pot-sized. A little bigger than I'd make in position or with fewer callers.

    I think we need to make up our mind on what to do on this flop when we re-pop it pre-flop.

    I would c/f. Give that guy a lot of respect to be calling UTG+1 in FR to that huge bet with those stats.

    I had my mind made up. I'm curious how others minds' might be made up. Or if they wouldn't re-pop it pre-flop, I'd like to hear that, and why.

    theres too much dead money not to be tempted.
    To be frank, my decision would have been to raise it a little more closer to $50 and pushed any flop...
    Is pushing preflop an option?

    Is pushing preflop an option?
    This idea is in NLT&P somewhere. I would like pushing preflop if the stacks were a little shorter (closer to 80BB's, like in Sklnansky's example). Then there would be enough dead money to compensate for taking the 30/70 against K-K or the 10/90 against A-A. Not to mention the 50/50 you would sometimes take against Q-Q, or the essentially 0/0 against A-K. And the fact that you would usually just take the pot down preflop and not have to play OOP. Too bad the stacks are ~120BB's

    I think i would still reraise this preflop. I would definitely be hoping that everyone would fold.

    As played, c/f flop. You got called by the intial raiser, and there is no way he can call you without Q-Q+. No Ace or King came, and i don't think people ever like to toss K-K in this spot.[/quote]
