    I don't normally re-raise there for the exact reason of the kind of ranges you can be up against at those limits because there's a ton of nits, but also a ton of tards and they're hard to distinguish apart from each other. I guess for the price, and with his anticipated range I don't mind seeing the flop? But it's super weak and it's like spewing 800, you can puke and fold, or just shove and pray, but you're equity is iffy if you shove and he's calling tight enough.

    +1 Flat preflop

    given stack sizes stage of tourny and the fact u have position I think i am here flatting pre
    however if u happy to get it all in pre i dont mind the reraise.. once u are re reraised back again
    u have to b preared to reship all in.. obv hoping for race v jj/qq or aq may show up some % of time
    if u not prepared to tdo this then the initial reraise is just a spew...

    I almost flatted, but figured I would set myself up to be squeezed and then I would most likely be OOP against the "squeezer". Ok, so hypothetically, if I flat, and someone squeezes, and original raiser folds, do you ship the AKs? Just curious. Thanks so much for the responses everyone.
