MP3 (t1455)
CO (t1335)
Button (t1620)
Hero (t1520)
BB (t1575)
UTG (t1660)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">7 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t300</font>, BB calls t200.

Why is he flat calling PF w/ &lt; 20 BBs instead of just jamming? My plan was to raise call PF but now I'm really confused.

I would probably complete and shove over a raise/lead the flop more than I like going to a 600 flop with 1200 behind when he calls

he calls sometimes in this spot. sometimes he folds to c-bet, sometimes he pushes over a c-bet. he is a little trickier mid game than your average 25-tabler.

but anyway, i am 1/2 potting the flop and would expect him to fold his KJo enough to make a c-bet profitable. i'm pretty sure a 6 or 7 is not in his preflop calling range so you will be good most of the time. also, i doubt he is pushing two overs to your c-bet.

I have a really hard time believing someone would play 66-JJ like this (IE not shove over your steal raise). That leaves QQ-AA, and a whole bunch of overcards in his range.

Okay, so now what? I don't know. I'd probably shove. That is about the best flop you could hope for in that situation. (or the worst if he's trapping with QQ+)

I think I would have led out 250 with intention of calling a shove. Remember I sux at teh pokerz so take that FWIW.

I like a shove after his bet. Kind of hard to put him on a hand, but it seems like his range should be made up of mostly high cards.
