When Should I call a Reraise?

#1 27th June 2009, 3:45 AM

Sometimes I got this on flop. I have TPTK but got reraise. I wonder what should I do in times like this? Should I call or fold?

It depends, how they are playing, if i got TPTK i am reraising, thats only if i don't see any str8 draws, or flush draws.

too broad a question, post hand histories and reads to help us help you

every situation is different so this question cannot be answered without hands

yeah depends on the situation n who ur playing and what the board looks like.

If ur playin against a loose/aggressive person n have TPTK it's best to extract as much vaule as u can so if he has re-raised u then come over the top to protect any drawing hands, plus he mite jus pay u off with a same pair worse kicker.
Playin against a tight guy n he re-raises u n u've got TPTK u mite wanna think about ur TP and u mite jus hav 2 fold. He mite have trips or 2 pair or drawing to the nuts. TP in No Limit hold'em is not that great realy.

whenever you're in doubt, play no limit fold'em. you'll live longer and die on your own terms

Actually it should be close to the opposite. The more draws out there the more likely they have a draw. But say an A83r flop if you get raised what do you think they have? They can't be raising a draw so most likely they're doing it with a set? Sure sometimes it can be pure air and sometimes they're bad enough to do it with like AJ/AQ but I'm much more inclined to fold TPTK on a dry flop with no draws than on a drawy flop.

True, that reminds when i had AQ, and someone shoved allin and i called, like a moreon, when i should of folded, only to find out he would win with A5. And yet i was in position, well he was UTG1.
Yeah i have been picking up when they have sets now. thought it took some time. I have to watch out for the loose players, that have a high win rate.

I think you should call a reraise when you have a good hand, or you think that your hand is better than your opponents hand.

Its all about skill and some luck

Is there a stats in HEM to see opponents winrate?

#10 28th June 2009, 7:27 AM

i ask myself should i raise? and if i do what range of hands call me? am i ahead of that range? will a raise make better hands fold? will lesser hands call? if i decide no i shouldnt raise i then ask should i fold? is my hand ahead of his range? will a call commit me? do i face an even bigger bet later on? if i decide i shouldnt fold then maybe i call. especially if there lots of chips left behind. in a vacuum my default play is fold. tptk to weak to stack w/IMO w/out any more info.

I sometimes like to rereaise with a big draw in position because it gets me free cards. For example if I have the nut flush draw I'm building a pot as well as almost guarantying the villain will check the turn into me. Also keeping in mind that sometimes you will win the pot right then and there. So it's not a bad play most of the time.

Keep this in mind when people are reraising you on drawey flops.
