400 NL, I isolate a donk and hit the flop hard. Extraction?
 

Villain is a passive fish preflop (55/6), but makes big bluffs after the flop.

dislike pf given description

I dunno, I don't like isolating this kind of player with this sort of hand. Although you are a better player than I am [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]. Post-flop is sweet I reckon.

i play this the same everywhere but pf.

Re: 400 NL, I isolate a donk and hit the flop hard. Extraction?
 

actually i probably bet 100 on the river, maybe 90.

Re: 400 NL, I isolate a donk and hit the flop hard. Extraction?
 

I like going with $188 on the river. Don't like preflop.

Re: 400 NL, I isolate a donk and hit the flop hard. Extraction?
 

You guys really don't like preflop??? I'm w/ u sabr...

Postflop looks good too. River I like ~$150 or shove - depends on your reads and table dynamics and stuff.

yeah I love getting involved preflop against a guy who plays aggressively and unpredictably postflop when I have a complete garbage hand that will rarely make much of anything [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

although I did misread the position initially and thought we were further off the button, which makes it a bit closer

All he said is that he makes big bluffs postflop.

I assume he plays like a typical fish the majority of the time, right? Its not like he can bluff big every hand. And if you happen to catch vs him you might get paid off big.

Why wouldn't you want to play HU in position against someone like that?

And J7s isn't garbage imo.

J7s is pretty much the bottom of my range here. I wouldn't isolate with ATC.
