    Well as i said he had been fairly aggro and the spots that had gone to showdown he had average holding's, such as getting it all in with 2nd pair etc... So i suspected by this point he was tilting slightly... But i didnt want to call and face a possible shove on a later street when overcards appeared, so i was either all in or fold i thought?

    If you think hes tilting or going mad, raise to 9-11 and let him shove, not rly a big fan of getting it in with jacks but his line is weird, normally people play aces this way utg but i doubt many people do it at 20nl

    Yeahhh Ben the fact he limped/raised set the alarm bells ringing! He really could of had anything and also hate getting it in with Jacks when the stacks are as deep as they were.

    If you suspect he's tilting even slightly shove.

    I'm happy to get it all in here, against a solid opponent, i probs fold pre but in 20NL i dont think people realistically limp UTG with aces/kings then re-raise you as its a bit more advanced and these days looks so obvious. I can find a cause for shoving/flatting/folding, what did you do out of interest?

    Thanks guys, for the record i folded.... Thinking straight away what a nit i was.... ;) but yeahh if it was a straight re-raise rather than a limp/re-raise i may have been more inclined to re-shove, but i was just had no idea where i was so thought i would wait for a better spot :)

    usually this is standard fold
    but like others say if any chance villain could be tilting, or trying to break even, i think getting it in is fine
