Question
You’re playing in a six-max game online. In this hand a badish player limps under the gun. Player 2, a tight regular, raises it to $8 and you just flat call on the button. The blinds fold and UTG raises to $40 and player 2 calls.
What should you do?
Correct Answer: Fold
A limp re-raise usually reps a lot of strength, even when it’s done by a fish. A fold can never be wrong here. Calling risks far too much of your stack vs two opponents that have already shown strength. Fold and move on.
