Hmm... AQoff ... out of position ... you re-raise and get re-re-raised by the original TAG button that limped. To me, he's got AA or KK (maybe ... just maybe AK, but not likely). He was probably thinking that if he raised from the button, that the blinds (and the original limper) would fold and he'd get nothing.

He could, however, limp hoping that the SB or BB picked up a hand and raised so he could then re-raise. To his pleasant surprise, it looks like both blinds picked up good hands ("hey ... esp that BB player"), and now he'll let everybody know he's got a great hand by limp-reraising. "Let me annouce precisely what I have." Of course, by limping with AA or KK on the button with one limper already in could lead to disaster if both blinds call/check and sees a flop with three others.

To me, I hate this hand anyway and in this situation I'm folding.

Fold, you're wayyy behind his range there imo. I don't really see him taking this line with anything worse than like KK, AA, AK, and maybe QQ/AQ. I also hate the fact that you're OOP for the rest of the hand. You can't really feel comfortable with many flops considering what kind of range he's doing this with.

Seems like an easy fold.
