Disrespected at the APL

[LeFou]

(APL is a free tourney held in bars for fun)

Mid/late in tourney. 100/200 blinds, you have about 2500. In BB you catch Q8s. Six people at the table, and LeFou raises to 600 from LP.

Now if I'm you instead of LeFou, I think:
-LeFou plays pretty tight; only showed down two or three hands so far and all were solid.
-Q8s sucks headup.
-My M is still >8; I can wait
-etc.

But since you're you and I'm not, you think:
-I'll just reraise all in.

Sorry if todays' posts are born of frustration. Yes the guy caught his flush, beating my ATs, but I don't want to talk about that.

This is basically a steal attempt by you, and as such is not horrible. I damn near folded the better hand, in fact. But is this attempt worth it when there are 4 other players at table who are Decidedly Not Solid?

I like to go for steals like this, too... but generally only versus limpers, or if versus a raise I need the raiser to be a mediocre or bad player. Should I lower my standards?

You can't call an AI with AT. How many chips did you have? I would rather have pushed with AT than raise 3xbb to steal the blinds so that I didn't have to face a resteal.

How many chips did you have?

Plenty. I think 6000. I was still CL (or close to it) at this table after doubling this guy up.
