this situations occured several times in the last few days

Nl25
me :

i raise 4bb from MP all fold but sb who calls.

FLOP

sb raises 1/3 pot i reraise a good amount
sb goes all in.

i call and lose

to

always

here are my thoughts.

I reaised preflop and he called from worse position.
so he probably has a AK AQ QQ JJ TT or any small pocket pair for set value.

he makes a small bet into this flop ...
i think i must ofc reraise this

then he goes all in over my reraise .

this is a difficult descision for me.
If there was only 1 ace on the flop id fold here .
cause he has an A for sure.

but there are 2 aces on the flop which makes it unlikley he flopped 3 of a kind aces ?

BUT on the other hand !

Consider with which hands he shoves all in over a preflop raisers reraise here on this board on NL25 where hardly anyone makes plays.

AK AQ and AJ + 99 are definitely the most likley hands here
consindering the preflop action.

i beat only JJ and TT that are also likley but on the other hand why should he move all in with TT or JJ here knowing with my preflop raise and flop reraise he only beats
a bluff T_T

so is this an easy fold ?

Another question is kinda similar.

me

i raise PF early position and get a MP caller
Flop

I raise flop potsize
I get a big reraise

Is this an easy fold ?
I beat almost nothing but a bluff

and i am pretty sure he has here

70 % of the time.

I think you overestimate what hands he has in hand 2, but hand 1 you should probably just call his 1/3 bet unless you know he does this with air only, I mean you are really turning your hand into a bluff here.

Hm.. Off-suite socks..

I actually prefer the re-raise on hand #1 (if you think you have the best hand). However, if he goes over the top and/or calls you have to shut down.

Hand #2...depends on the opponent really...although most of the time if he re-pops you you're going to be an underdrog.
