How would you have played this one? CO raises to 5x bb and then short stack on the button moves AI for another $3.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $2 BB (6 handed) converter

UTG ($68.30)
MP ($104.40)
CO ($161.95)
Button ($13.15)
SB ($93.75)
Hero ($163.85)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A, K.
UTG calls $2, 1 fold, CO raises to $10, Button raises to $13.15, 1 fold, Hero raises to $30, UTG folds, CO raises to $161.95, Hero calls $131.95.

Flop: ($340.05) 2, 6, 3 (3 players)

Turn: ($340.05) 6 (3 players)

River: ($340.05) 2 (3 players)

Final Pot: $340.05

Results to be posted later.

I'd have to put him on a pair with that play.. I can't really see calling that. I would have just called the all-in and seen a flop. You will hit that flop about 1 in 3 times and you have odds for that. Then you can proceed to take on the CO.

Here's a question: if you would have just called the AI, would the CO have an opportunity to reraise? I think he wouldn't because its an all-in.

When I was playing I thought for sure the CO would have the opportunity to raise so I went ahead and raised before he had the chance. I now realize that the AI wasn't a big enough raise to qualify as a raise so a reraise wouldn't be allowed. The only reason I called his AI is because I thought he raised too much preflop to be on AA/KK which would be the only hands I could fold too. I don't seem to be getting much discussion on this one so I'll just go ahead and say that he had QQ and I lost.
