I'm folding also. Too many unknowns. Curiosity isn't a factor either as I'm pretty sure billy big stack likes his hand and will be calling.

What happened?

Something like Jacks for wreckless guy and AA or KK for SB would be my guess, so I would fold.

Fold you are going to be facing aces or kings far too many times for you to call the re raise. Its not the first raise that worries its the 2nd very few players are reckless enough to come over the top of two raises especially a loosey goose without the goods. Interesting situation tho if you had aa would people advocate flat calling to get the reckless player in.

Call, your up against JJ and KK. You hit Q on river.

It was late and i was 350 to the good on the table.  I reckon at least one of them has AK, probably the sb and the wreckless boy could have anything (i think he may have AK also).

I Push all in, thinking the big stack may find some sense if he hasn't got aces or kings and fold.

He calls instantly and i fear the worst.

Board brings 9 high board with no 4 to the flush.

Showdown -

sb - AK
Big Stack - JJ

Woo Hoo

I still think it was a bad play tho.

Lucky man... nice squeeze though on the big stack. He very possibly has better.

SB re-raise pretty much screams two over cards, at least to me. But what does this fishy know :)

You must pass. Not becauser of the $200 but because of the other guy with position on you who made it $24+$24. If he is doing this with a weak hand you will no doubt get to see as he will probably now call the $150 anyway. This gives you free info having not invested too much and if you find they have done it with carp, then use the rest of the session to punnish their whole stack as there will be other opportunities.
