    Pretty early in SNG, no reads on the guy

    A couple of points in the hand that I would like comments on:
    After his reraise preflop should I call/reraise I figured that he has AK, AA, KK, JJ, maybe AQ

    After the flop when I bet I expected either a fold or a reraise, the call made me think AKo when either A or K is clubs.

    What do you think?

    1. Your first raise has to be bigger with a limper already in there in first position. Especially at the $10 games, make it around 100-140.

    2. Don't just call his weak reraise. You have a premium hand. Only hands ahead of you are KK and AA. You have to reraise, and reraise strong. My reraise would be around 350-400. You have to take control of the hand with top end cards like that.

    3. I have a feeling he had a slightly lower pair than yours, maybe 10's. He seemed worried about the flop, but still called with the overpair hoping you were on the draw at best. I think you convinced him he was way behind with your continued betting on the turn.

    I dont think he had tens..AQ or AJ sounds better to me b/c he would have probably re raised the flop with tens...and forts bet on the turn was very weak...since it was almost as much as his bet on the flop...anyways i would have raised more pre flop and then according to my reads im either re raisaing or simply smooth calling..
