Given my chip lead in this game it seemed like the right play at the time, but looking back I'm not sure at all. I lost the hand although went into it ahead. Maybe my thoughts should have been more alined to worrying about doubling him up? An allin over the top of my raise for that many chips should should have indicated a big hand. He didn't have one as it turned out, but none the less, do you call or fold here?

No real reads on this guy except that he limps into too many hands but rarely raises, hence the alarm bells

How can you pass? He only has 1700 and you have already put in 800. You have to call 900 to win 2500ish. About 2.8-1 and you have an A. You can only be wrong to call here if he has AA.

I'd agree....it's a call every time for me..(when i have chips to play with)
