Well in the first hand i think reraising all in there can be trouble. Why put your tourny on the line you could have still got him to pay you without risking it all, his small amount of chips are worth busting out.

 

[dresturn2]

One rule i go by in those situations is that if it looks like they want you to fold then they are probably bluffing but.......in this situation your hand is not strong enough to call that reraise unless you are sure he is bluffing in which this case you dont know. Folding is the right play here until you find out more atleast you know not to bet into him unless you have a stronger hand

 

[didimaketherightplay]

well ****! i just busted out with ****ing AA. so sick of playing well and always busting out to a bad beat

guy raises 3x to 600 one caller, i reraise to 1400 flop comes Kxx all diamonds, he checks, i push, he shows Ak with Ace of diamonds, river is the 2d. ****! bullshit breaks.

 

[dj11]

Read around, and you will find that AA comes with NO GUARANTEES!
