Flop ($10) comes 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. CO pushes $95.

He's fishy but not fishy enough to do something dumb like open push 9.5x pot with a draw. I figure he has two pair or better here and he wouldn't make this move ever unless he was looking for a call.

If you can put him on a specific range, this is an easy pokerstove problem. But would he do this with A2, or would he only do it with 22? TT doesn't seem likely for some reason, and obv AA is out of the question.

If his range is TT,22,ATs,ATo, this is a clear fold.

If his range is that plus A2, this is a marginal, high variance call.

If his range is that minus TT, this is a good call.

i dont get why he would shove with a set or a great hand? i expect to see like AJ or spades or some dumb [censored] like that a ton. or whatever the hell he has. i think he c/rs good hands most times or just leads.

2p or better...what 2p? T2?

He's semi-fishy, he limped, and you have top two pair. Cmonnn, you don't think he's doing this with any flush draw, any ace-x?

I would do the Hellmuthian scramble-to-instacall maneuver instead of fistpump.
