    Usually yes call.

    But from what i can insinuate from the HH the timing really looks like AA or KK...

    Still even with that you probably have to call. I put his range around AQ+, TT+ with no reads.

    Also what's your image? This is definitely pertinent.

    Call unless it's the bubble, you're not deep.

    If you can put AQ in his range, call. this is one of those spots where folding AK wouldnt be so bad.

    Tough scenario indeed. If your not real sure about the player that re-raised then it's an easy fold here. You have far too many chips to worry about losing 4k to a re-raise. Even if your in a flip you don't want to flip for your entire stack. Wait for a better spot and get in with the best hand. With a raise like that you almost have to put him on AA or KK at the very least.

    I would definitely call this, but folding isn't terrible.

    You don't think he could be pushing to isolate with his middle pair or AQ? I'm probably pushing...

    Yeah just seemed like no thought went into the response and I'm curious to hear why this is such an instacall.

    I agree it is a call but only because you can put AQ in the big stacks range as his bet is clearly an isolation bet. The problem is good players will play AA/KK this way too because a call looks more like AA/KK here than a push does.
