Re-stealing

[0live]

Xilitla was a solid player who had been stealing blinds for the past couple orbits. What do you need to raise over him, and how much do you raise? After he pushes over, what is the minimum you need to call with? Opinions on the re-steal with such a weak hand?

1) you dont need cards to resteal
2) your T9o isnt good enough to call here
3) I dont kno exactly wat u need to call, I would say extremely tight here. TT or JJ+, AQ if not AK.
4) I think you popped it too hard, 1600-1800 is all u really need to tell him to back off if he doesnt have a real hand. Making it 2k just costs u an extra 200 chips.

I think this was a good move, but you need to lay off if he pushes, after some "thinking" about it to maybe fray his nerves a little bit.

About the resteal raise amount, I agree with VQ, make it about 2.5 times his raise and that should usually be enough.
