Pokerstars $27 9-handed: strange BB call by a regular
 

Hello,
I pushed K5 from sb in a situation where EV was positive on all calling ranges.
These days I'm receiving incredible calls by any kind of players. I can't really understand this one.
BB is a regular, +8% ROI on 16000 games.

I'm not a maniac, so I really can't understand the call.
He requested time, thinked and did the call with his Jd 7d.

I think it's always allowed to write down screennames.
You just aren't allowed to post a link between a screenname and a 2+2 nick, if villain obv wants to hide his identity.

yeah his call is pretty horrible. If you are sure he's a winner, it could be tilt, or a misclick, or his buddy playing. I'm fairly sure no longterm winner regularly makes this play.

I'm sure as sharkscope's data are correct.
It was not a misclick, he thinked about it and I commented the hand telling 'you were supposed to be good', he answered back.
I played many and many games vs him (I play 16 to 24 tables and I meet him quite ANY tables), and I was not so surprised of the call because have other nice examples in the past from him.
However, history data tells he win every time [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] So his EV is +

I'd snapcall this. I know it might be a leak but I'm not going to stop doing it, folding vs an unknown of course.

It's actually pretty significantly +$EV if he thinks SB is on ATC, as many regulars might be.

Equilibrium's around shove 65% call 32% so J7s misses and K5o is still a shove but it doesn't take much either way to change things significantly. If they play enough that this call will tighten up OPs shoving range, metagame's a potential factor as well.

FWIW, NutPopper seems to be a winner, but I'm not at all dissapointed when he shows up in my SNG's.
