Everyone folded to the blinds. Which was me with 2200 chips on the big blind and the chip leader at our table with 3400, the small blind. It is early in the tournament like 30 min. I havent seen this guy steel a blind before, but this appeared to be a attempt right here. He raised me the min of 80. I reraised him another 80 with my A,7 off. He calls the flop is A,3,9 rainbow. He raises half pot. I called nervously. The next card was a 2. He raised pot. I was pretty sure he didnt have a straight. I thought he had either an A or a pair of nines. I was hoping if he had the ace, He had a lower kicker, or he saw my weak call of his half pot raise and was thinking his pair of nines were good enough. I didnt think he had the ace as much as i thought he had the 9 so i called. the last card was an 8. He raised me all in and i called with the little chips i had left he turned over pocket 8s.
I know i didn't play that ahnd very well at all, but this was another example of several times i regret messing with the chip leader. The chip leader is more careless than most players and will make more agressive plays than others. What would you have done on that situation? would you fold? Would you have reraised him after the flop?
