His 9x bb raise looked super fishy, and at my table ive seen alot of all-in bluffs with like j8o and k8s, though not by this guy.

reraise? fold? call?

[pankfish]

I would rule out reraise. This early he probably isn't making a play for the blinds, and if you reraise he will probably shove over on you if your raise doesn't put him all. I wouldn't call either because he doesn't have enough chips to play for set value.

I don't think you have any fe here either. I'd just fold.

[snowboard_31]

what about a stop and go? Sorry for the newb questions but Im just beggingin to dabble in tourny play.

How good of a line would it to have called, then pushed or lead the flop?

[elipsesjeff]

I don't mind a RR, I also don't mind the fold.

[donkbee]

How much is this guy raising PF? If he's not super tight, I probably just push since he's already raised 1/3 of his stack. I don't think I would like folding 99 to someone I've seen limp a monster like KK before when there's only one person behind me.

P.S. If you are going to change your name to 'HERO' in the HH, don't forget that you were in the sb this hand and you have to change that too.

If you had to work out a range here, what would it be? How often do you think this is a complete bluff for 75 chips?

1) Range being KTo+, KTs+, A9o+, A9s+, 55-QQ, QJ
2) Then a complete bluff maybe 20% of the time

At this point a majority of hands were not even seeing a flop, either low stacks push, or a 3-5x bb raise and everyone fold

[chardrian]

It's a 6x raise pre not 9x but it still is big.

I don't mind a re-raise/push at all pre.

Stop'n'go isn't bad here considering your opp will only have like 750 behind and the pot will be 650.
