*Grunch* You have to fold. He might have played the hand this way with big overcards or a big pocket pair, but he didn't raise preflop, so this is unlikely. He MIGHT do this with top pair (10s), but I think we are way behind his range most of the time here with bottom two.

...ummm wow.

Guess this as good a place as any - wtf is up with this *grunch* stuff? Thanks.

i think you fold this. all you beat is a pair, and if he's got a T or an over pair, why didn't he reraise the flop, also, if he's as bad as you say he is, there will be a much better spot to get your money in against him.

do you not know what a grunch is? or would you rather get heavily involved on our hand that only beats top pair and is behind to a very possible straight or set given preflop action?

Calling $23 is not getting 'heavily involved'. You may be behind, you may be ahead. The redonk turn line is often weakness, and the OP's read is that SB is a bad player. You're being laid 3:1 and I think you're better way more than 25% here. It's not like your only decisions are shove/raise or fold. Calling and evaluating the river is fine and good.

But yeah, that wasn't my real question/comment. What is a grunch?

You are ahead here almost every time. Take whatever line you think will get the most money in vs weakish made hands.

grunching is a term that was widely used in the micro limit pages when i played limit

it's when a poster responds without reading the advice in posts above theirs so as to not corrupt themselves by the poor advice contained therein

Just calling or raising is fine here. Folding is ABSOLUTELY out of the question. If you raise you should probably call a push. If you just call, you should try to get some reasonable value on the river.
