Default Re: 530 Floating a Mid Pair

I don't play the $530s, but I wouldn't raise this after a limper. I'd tend to limp along.

As played, flop is read dependent, but the turn I'm folding. Odds are I'm folding the flop. You're probably a slight favorite at best against some big cards.

At 33 big blinds (I guess) this hand looks like spew. BB didn't flat call you preflop light and if your stats reflect this kind of play there's no way he's just putting you on just a set.

What do you think you are pushing him off? QQ? 99?

after playing some 530s recently with you I think you def play well early and it will be reflected well in your roi. This specific hand doesn't look too good though.

Not sure what you are looking for. Most of us don't play the 530s and those of us that win at the lower levels would never make this play.

Against a solid regular this looks bad. He's not calling thin pf considering his position and his flop lead is pretty scary.

Not sure. I think his range is wide but his range for calling this push is pretty thin.

Doesn't this look like a strong line?

a think there are better turns than a measly 3 to make it look like a stronger line

If villian only knows you as TAG, then it looks like you have JJJ or TTT.

I don't expect his range to be that wide, but maybe 'solid regular' doesn't mean one particular thing. Do you have his stats?
