Default check fold?


Villain is very aggressive and can be spewy especially since i have gotten the best of him on several occasions lately for stacks.

Party Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $2/$4 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker Hand History Converter)

SB: $408.10
BB: $410.10
UTG: $212.09
MP: $594.10
Hero (CO): $410.00
BTN: $796.40

Preflop: Hero is dealt J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (6 Players)
UTG calls $4.00, MP folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $18.00</font>, <font color="red">BTN raises to $60.00</font>, 3 folds, Hero calls $42.00

Flop: ($130) 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players)
Hero checks, <font color="red">BTN bets $100.00</font> Hero??

"very aggressive" isnt really enough but u can shove it vs the type of villain i think u are referring to.

Shoving is insane, please for the love of God do not do this. Villain is ahead here, what are you hoping he has, red TT? Pls fold.

Villain is what u think, and i wondered how thin this would be to shove as villain can easily have anything here (been very irritated with me---spewing chips with horrid shoves and losing against me etc.

note: at the point of villains cbet, i felt certain that i was ahead easily yet wondered how the reverse implied affected this if i did other than shove here.

You really feel you're easily ahead here? What are you easily ahead of? You must be assuming that 77 thru TT, no club, make up a huge part of his range, because everything else is beating you or flipping.

Only you can gauge how spewy you think villain is, but from what you describe you're probably ahead here enough to be marginally profitable. It is pretty thin though.

well, lets examine this. Villain 3 bet with T8s. Villain also would cbet hard into me 100% of flops after i check.

How far am i ahead of Villain if flop was "average flop" for his hand??

The fact that he flopped the joint has no bearing here as he would have cbet any/all flops. Yes, I believe i am well ahead at this point.

The question becomes do i protect my stack or protect my hand?
