Re: when to call a habitual pusher
It is a good discussion point. I think that if I could tighten my standards without him adjusting his, it would be ideal. But it would be really bad to lose him as a customer and while I am not certain if he would have slowed down, I didn't want to take the risk.

Re: result
Do you think this is the best way to keep him around? Or keep him playing comparably?

in the future
Although correct in this case, I think my A-6 call might have been a little on the thin side. I think if the identical situation were magically to present itself in the future, I would call with 66 and up for pairs - and A8, maybe A7. KQ probably, KJ unlikely.

Re: result
bluff - i'm not talking about tourney vs cash. obv. ev is ev. my point being that if my edge is greater than A6o (i call) vs. his KJ, I probably shouldn't make this call regularly since if he gets "lucky", I now have to reload, I don't cover him, and he will probably give away my stack quicker to others before I have a chance to get it back. Even if I was better than EVERYONE at the table (which I'm not) it's still me in a race with 4 other players...it just doesn't seem optimal, obv. I have no numbers to back up my claims, i also happen to tilt pretty hard so it's probably smarter for me not to run and gun like this with fish.

Re: result
AZK, I had almost 14K, so I could have doubled him up a couple of times and still covered him. But if I had doubled him up, I am unsure if he would push with a 4K stack. ... I do agree that if you are prone to tilt, you should not make these kind of calls. But if you can call, lose a huge pot, and keep playing your game (in which you clearly have an edge over most), I think it is better to make the thin calls if you think they are right. ... That being said, I think it is very astute and mature to consider your propensity to tilt when considering making these thin calls.
