    Default SNG hand

    22$ SNG
    I have 5200
    Vilain 4500
    6 players left
    Vilain raised every hand to 625 when folded to him since BB reach 200...
    Then bet the flop when called
    Basicaly a maniac
    PF I fired back once and he layed it down

    I'm on Button with AA
    folded to him on CO
    He raised 625
    I call (should I raise in your opinion even with my read on him)

    Flop 9 6 5 rainbow

    He checks!?!?! WTF????
    I bet 800
    He raise all in

    What to do?
    He certainly have a hand cause he played it out of his patern, but do you think its something AA can beat? I was him show every kind of hands he raisd preflop... worst I've seen was J4o...

    If I fold I still have an M of 13, but blinds will double up in a few hands.

    Easy call?

    KJ

    I'm reraising PF because as you said, he folded most of the hands when you reraised. As it stands, you have no clue if he has a legitimate hand or not. The PF reraise would be for value and information.
    I study at KRE8R's School of Bankroll Management.

    If you IM me looking for money or a trade, you will be blocked.

    I call, if he had the nut straight or a set I think he would smooth call. Only thing I would fear is if he hit 2 pair....

    Im pretty sure folding AA to this type of player is -EV in the long run.

    I doubt he puts you on a overpair, hes probaly thinking you hit a bit of the flop and a check-raise bluff will push you off this hand. It appears to me like he does not want you to call here, so disappoint him and call anyways.

    Well... you are far to be wrong, but the logic behind the flat call was to pick another bet on the flop cause I had position on him.

    I was more than 75% sure that raise preflop was bullshit, and 90% sure he would lead the flop with any 2.

    But you may be right, I should have raise.

    raise preflop 100% of the time.

    push, or commit a % of your stack that commits you to the hand.
