Limp re-raised by a 35/20 player? Fold, you are never good. If he had anything you beat he would have raised.

Do these 35/20ish player always have timbit (donut hole) raising ranges? These guys have been killing me lately because they never seem to fold to a 3-bet either.

I would have just checked in the BB...hoping to flop a 7 and win a big pot (hand strength would be totally masked).

As played, I would fold. Late position open limps from LAGs tend to make me suspicious. Also, do you want to risk your tournament in this spot (it's a push if you want to play it)? No.....

I do actually check here most of the time with a mid PP, but I thought I'd try something different and raise this time.
