What do you do? About 15 players still left. All-in or fold? Not much reads, the guy has been playing quite a few hands, but he could just be using his chip stack.

He's got you covered, so i'd fold this one preflop because it's too much of a risk.

That's strong to re-pop you out of position. From the looks of the chip stacks at your table, you can fold here with 1865 left in chips (leaves you ahead of 3 others at your table) and an M of 8-9. I'm not familiar with the payout structure for these or know how much time you have until the blinds increase again, but I'd weigh those into consideration. Clearly it's either a fold or a shove depending on those other factors. Clearly you can't call since that will leave you pot committed (1340 left in stack with pot now at 1875). Push or fold -- depending on payout structure, when blinds increase, if you're playing to win or just move up in payout structure. Clearly, you don't have any real fold equity, either, so you have to weigh that into consideration.

Even being drunk and aggressive I would tend to fold this hand with such a large reraise. Depends though if he thinks you're weak tight. I'm guessing an overpair or AK or AQs. You are too good a player to gamble on a coin flip.


Side note: What is it with these stupid pp 7s that cause so much trouble, this is the 3rd question today about them (me included)

another 7 is obv coming on the turn so i would smooth call.

if its the first time hes reraised preflop i fold if hes been doing alot of preflop re-raising i go allin. u said hes played alot of hands but has he played any like this yet or has he been mostly calling preflop raises? and have u been raising alot of pots trying to pick up blinds? its possible he thinks ur trying to pick up the blinds and hes trying to re-steal. To him your bet might look like your trying to save a few chips incase you are reraised unless he has seen you making these raises all tourny. If its the first time i saw him reraise pre or only saw him do so with big hands ill respect his bet and fold this one but wont let him get away with it again.
