Default Re: overbet push from terrible player

[ QUOTE ]
i don't understand the argument for calling. i'm sure you did and won.

the question is, what's the worst hand you would call this with? that's more interesting than whether to fold or call this particular hand. i mean if you think all overbets are nuts or air, then it seems like a call, but you never know with donkeys. find a better spot.

nuts or air or a semibluff. I'm thinking that calling here is probably a mistake. However his cb on the flop really can't tell me much and given how loose he is its entirely possible that the 6 gave him a straight draw or that the 2nd diamond gave him a flush draw.

It's a dry board and my most likely holding from his perspective is probably a medium pocket pair or maybe a weak J. pushing with a semibluff makes sense...pushin with a lock hand like an overpair or AJ doesn't seem to make much sense. pushing with TT or down doesn't make much sense either.

so yeah, I thinke he's got a set here, a bluff, or a semibluff...and I think he's range is probably weighted towards a bluff....

as to find a better spot. Why? if he doubles up on me I can rebuy and still have him pretty much covered.
