you're reraising because you think you have the best hand (for value)

without stats/reads, thread is wat? ship that first amendment

i'm not worried about marm0r21 having a hand because any AA/KK playing like that is just asking to get stacked

Turidoo would not flat a reraise there or he's giving marm0r21 set odds

Your first bit makes no sense: yes we are re-raising preflop for value, but that we've been shoved on and now have new information. I mean you open A9s on the button for value, but if a nit shoves his stack and you are 500bb deep you don't auto call because you opened pre for value.

I have no idea what to do here, I think it can go either way. If I was playing with a short roll I'd fold to keep it low variance, if I wasn't I'd call because I want to get some information to help me with my game long-term.

fold

fold, marm0r is either squeezing as a bluff or has a very good hand or identical to yours, but the problem is with Turidoo, he acts behind you, and he may just snapcall with KK/AA considering he just smoothcalled your bet waiting for what marm0r was gonna do.

Turido has a $6 stack.

Why would he flat your raise. Do you have a read on whether this guy is the worst shortstack ever or what?

I don't know anything about shortstack play (or poker) but if his play is going to make even the more remote amount of sense, isn't he going to have QQ+ here?

So decide if he's terrible or not, then ignore him and decide what to do based on your thoughts about marm0r... Personally I'm terrible and when I hold less than QQ+, I have a hard time CALLING an all-in preflop from people who aren't shortstacked.

All you beat is a bluff or any AX hand and you're flipping vs any paired hand below KK.
