you has a gutshot

Re: PLO50 - OK Gambol?
 

Against this type of guy I don't see why you don't just wait for a better opportunity to stack him. In all likelihood is going to do something really dumb sooner or later.

Lucky

Against what range would it be profitable? Does he CR with air a lot? I'd just as soon fold and get his money later.

Re: PLO50 - OK Gambol?
 

I think it's fine to felt this against an outright maniac like this. You have at least a few and probably many outs, and you could even be way ahead if he has say just a pair of fours and a tiny flush draw, 4TJQ, or air, all of which are possible given his stats.

Re: PLO50 - OK Gambol?
 

wow at least someone agrees with me - i cant see how this is a straight forward fold getting better than 2-1 against this type of opponent

Re: PLO50 - OK Gambol?
 

id like this alot more if you were the one shoving and not calling off your chips.
i dont think its that bad either way.

Re: PLO50 - OK Gambol?
 

The only time this is bad is if you know he takes off straight after and you never see villain again, ever. Otherwise, nh sir.

Edit...

The added bonus is that your table image will be very nice after this hand imo.

Re: PLO50 - OK Gambol?
 

Has he been check raising much? If not, I might have to fold on the flop (although 2 to 1 is tempting, you only have a gutshot to go with your middle pair and poor flush draw).

Do you really need to reraise preflop here? Is just calling in position and waiting for the flop a reasonable alternative? I guess it depends on his postflop tendencies.

Re: PLO50 - OK Gambol?
 

re raising pre flop is an absolute must here - the players after me will all limp if i dont, and im then in the worst position on the table on the flop, after the maniac and before all the TAG's. i think its a leak not to be reraising playable hands against this type of player in order to get it HU with position. anyway as the hand played out i got my money in good, villan was shoving with ace high and the NFD (i was 55/45 fav)
