Rock · $1/$2 live
The rock who re-raises your isolation raise preflop has a monster. You thought you were isolating a limper. You just walked into a trap.
Why they do it
Rocks at $1/$2 who limp and re-raise are slow-playing their biggest hands. They limped to keep the pot small and invite action, and your isolation raise just gave them exactly what they wanted. This is one of the rare times this player type gets creative - and it's always with the goods.
The adjustment
Fold everything except aces. This is not a spot to get stubborn. They've been waiting for this hand all night and you just showed up for them.
What it's worth
Calling a limp-reraise from a rock with KQo or JJ and seeing aces is an avoidable stack loss. Fold it and save yourself the session damage.
