Fold.

If villain has any sense at all, he has a real hand this time. He will know that the whole table saw him play trash last hand and he has to expect that there could be multiple callers.

This guy could be a good target and you`ll get his chips soon enough. You have time to wait for a more clear-cut chance.

I'm veery loose in rebuys but this is probably a bit too far. As much worried about the guys behind who may view initial push as dead money and call with a huge range. A8s is not doing particularly well against anything higher than a 8.

That said, rebuys are about speculating base on marginal reads so if you feel he's legitimately pushing any two cards then fair enough.

How's that for answering the question both ways? :)

It's a rebuy, CALL.

This is what I was thinking so it is what I did.

Don't have the hand history readily available but I believe the villian had a medium pocket pair, 9s or 10s, to which I promptly was dealt a flush :D

This is the tourney I ended up in 5th out of 105 and couldve done better if I wasn't so f ing tired and the final table wasn't so damn slow.

Thanks for your input though, just wanted to see how other people would play this.

ya people dont change gears in the first hour of the rebuy so i dont think a call here is too bad unless the baloodog guy has been known to play top ten-ers very passively so far.
