[Closed] NL10 how much to raise from MP?

raise 4BB first in and fold to a reraise with AQo

Hi,
According to basic SSS AQo and suited is not a reraising hand.You was reraised by
short stack,which can also be tight SSS player,so reraised you with AA-JJ.AK,you
with AQo was behind,and even had less outs cos AQ offsuited,so I think you should
consider fold after being reraised .Of course you have know your stack:your raise
ratio.In this particular situation i would consider my stack:my raise ratio more tend
to be towards 4:1 ,because of possibility SSS playing opponent(you have to have
better hand to call raise,than to raise-according to a lot of pros).If your opp is big
stack with looser starting hands standarts,you can consider going all in.You had
1,6 us doll.left,even no need immediate rebuy according basic SSS,should fold and
wait better hand to strike with.
About betting- standart SSS bet 4xBB+1BB per limper(you had no limpers),so you
bet should be 0,4.Phil Gordon recommends raise 2,5-3BB from EP,4BB LP.Your
overraise is not scare good player,for me it`s sign of weakness-he don`t want to be called?Why?.If table is pretty loose and tend to call many raises,then overraise is
reasonable with premium hands AA-KK,AKs,because you don`t want many callers.
I tend to stick to standard SSS raise,cos opps don`t know then whether you
raising with AA or with 77.Maybe I`m not absolutely right or to cautious,let`s see
what experts are thinking.
Good luck.

The normal way of handling this situation would be to bet $.4 and fold to a reraise, as already mentioned.

Good luck at the tables ;).

Nothing to add. Bet 4BB fold against reraise with raise : stack ratio of more than 4:1.

Phil Gordon is playing with a big stack, so his suggestions don't fit)
since we often have an equity advantage preflop (big stacks have to play looser to win), we would love to see our opponents calling bigger bets (actually we want them all-in with their normal range). But, unfortunately, the bigger your bet will be, the stronger hands you will face.
In my opinion, the theoretical optimal raise size is 3BB, however, it doesn't provide enough value to cover the adjustments you have to make (both pre&postflop). In other words, it doesn't worth it, imo.

and about the hand)
bet 0.4 and fold to a reraise
