check-raised by a mouse ?!

[Moskvich]

I'd also like to retract my previous comments. If I didn't know from my own data that he's a genuine mouse then I'm shoving em in too. Though I kind of suspect the reload will still be in order.

One of Flushy's accounts is described as a mouse by poker-edge whereas he is clearly a green fish.

I don't think it is too accurate....

i've never found a mouse on there to NOT be a mouse though!

and yes people appear to be different on different sites but thats because maybe they played on one site 3 years ago when they were shit. like my pokerstars calling stationess !!

This might seem ultra risky but I'd re-raise the mouse for $20 and then if he comes back over the top fold (I know this sounds like donking off half your stack) but I'd read the mouse for AK or maybe A 10 also rather than trips.

I think a mouse would muck 22 to a raise of 5 times blind and a call pre-flop so the only hand they'd be winning with are AA or 10 10 and with one of each on flop and you holding one of each in hand statistically it's incredibly unlikely that's what the mouse has - hence the re-raise to find out (but maybe I'm just a really bad player).

but if u reraise for that amount ur committed for the rest and therefore your calling when he moves over top with top 2...

Fair point Adam but I just find it hard to believe he's behind given the play here and having made the initial call what did he want to hit on flop - having played the hand to then lay down top 2 pair takes a better player than me and overall I think playing them in this situation will win more than it loses.

I disagree. It's a standard call against non-serial pre-flop raisers- especially since it's only costing him 4BB to call.

Anyway, this thread should die. Its an instacall.

[Tragic]

It's probably more interesting to think about how you are going to play the rest of the streets? I would rarely pass here I think you are ahead more often than not, but would you be calling the turn bet to check/call the turn and river? I would flat call his flop reraise let him bet the turn and stack off at least then he can have bet the turn mistakenly and committed himself if he is a poor player with a decent ace...and we lose to hands we were paying off anyway.
