"#19: You're in the BB. Blinds are $1/$2 and everyone at the table has $50,000 in front of them. It is folded to the button, who raises to $7 but accidentally turns over his cards in the process. You see that he holds: Ac Ad

He knows that you saw his hole cards. He did not see your hand. What range of hands should you call with? Which hands should you re-raise with?

Obviously you reraise with nothing, or he shoves all in. I also don't call with any hands, this is not worth the mental work & aggrivation to properly try to bluff him off the AA when you hit nothing. I'm folding, he can have my two dollars lol Quiz answer? I honestly don't know ... there may be hands I'd call with hoping to hit, like TJ suited, but overall I'd fold.

IMO this has to be wrong. You are very deep stacked. It have to be +EV to call with any two. If you don't get back your preflop investment when you hit by calling, your opponnent is simply folding to much postflop. In this case you can bluff him off most of the time postflop. If your opponent calls to much postflop, you can valubet all your funky twopair+ hands. I think it would be very hard for the button finding the right balance between calling and folding postflop. Look at it this way: How would you like to play AA in this case postflop when you know nothing about your opponents hand?

There is 15 dollar in the pot, you have close to 50000 dollar behind. Player A is on the button holding Ac Ad (which both players know, and both know they know). Player B is in BB holding anytwo. Which player do you want to be A or B?
