Hero raises to 3x BB with 2s-9s then some donktard who's running at like 50/40 and pushing every 4th hand thats raised, raises all in for 40+ BBs.
Full Tilt Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.25/$0.50 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker HH Converter) SB: $66.40 BB: $85.30 Hero (UTG): $41.20 MP: $28.50 CO: $53.95 BTN: $55.85 CO posts $0.50 Preflop: Hero is dealt 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (6 Players) <font color="red">Hero raises to $2.00</font>, <font color="red">MP raises all-in to $28.50</font>, Hero? I feel like i make the call here far too often...... |

If he is pushing every 4th hand call here. If he is pushing every 7th or 8th hand, fold. Your hand does well against the top 25% but poorly against the top 12.5% of hands.

I usually fold these thinking that I will get a better chance to stack him later on if he pushes as much as you said. Patience.

Why arent you fullstacked?
I think calling is marginal. If he does that every 4th hand i'm calling this from time to time, depending on my mood. |

Just because some guy is 50/40 and pushing every 4th hand doesn't mean you need to start calling his all-ins with marginal holdings |

Why did I pick this well because I think this is a reasonable range for someone who pushes every 4 hands Text results appended to pokerstove.txt 446,911,344 games 0.005 secs 89,382,268,800 games/sec Board: Dead: equity win tie pots won pots tied Hand 0: 48.810% 48.40% 00.41% 216287506 1851198.00 { 66+, A4s+, K8s+, Q9s+, J9s+, T9s, A9o+, KTo+, QTo+, JTo } Hand 1: 51.190% 50.78% 00.41% 226921442 1851198.00 { 8c8s } So we are ahead, marginal yeah but it is still +ev and that is all that matter |

cooker i think taking coinflips is not the way to go in cashgames imo. Therefore i think both ways are fine. Neither instacalling nor instafolding is right.

[/ QUOTE ] If it's the best play then it is. I don't go around looking for coin flips in cash games like I would if I was playing a tournament but if presented to me in a situation like this then I will take it. |
