Playing NL200, guy ran at around 65/35. Very bad. He'd bet every street until someone showed aggression. For example, I saw him 3B JJ pre-flop (from 8 to 64!!), then bet 3 streets when checked to w/ a KQx flop, ultimately losing $400 on the hand.
I had a hand with him where he called my PFR w/ Q8h out of one of the blinds. I called his flop donk, raised his turn, and put him AI on the river when he checked to me w/ a flop of AQx. How bad he is really isn't the point, I guess. The thing that made me wonder a bit how to play him was the sizing of his pre-flop raises. If he opened, it would be anywhere in the neighborhood of $16-$24 (8-12 BB's). What sorts of hands do you like to play w/ him? Do you bother 3 betting pre-flop since it seems you can get all his money post-flop anyway? Remember that we can't wait forever since he'll bleed off all his chips relatively soon. Here's a specific hand I had against him that confused me a bit. SB 570.65 BB 342.85 Hero 566.40 CO 638.10 BN 278.35 Hero has A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Hero raises to 8, 2 folds, SB raises to 50 total, Hero ?? He didn't seem to 3 bet pre-flop light at all. What do you like to do here? We're reasonably deep, so I wasn't sure what would be a good line. Of course, I could just shove here and gamble it up, but there certainly will be better situations to get it all in against a guy like this. Thanks for your thoughts. |

all in, or as close to it as you can, preflop with TT+, AQ+. Postflop, all in with top pair.

why not call and if you spike an A or K he stacks anyways. seems to be a waste to shove.

I just call with position, this deep. Under-reps our hand a bit, he won't get away when we have him dominated. If we whiff and he bets, oh well, fold and on to the next hand.
Edit: never cbet a whiff, obv. |

We're going to experience some sick varience if we want to push this likely small edge for 300BB.
As others have said i would wait until i hit something before commiting 300BB's. If he's as bad as op says then we have plenty of chance to get it in with a bigger edge this deep. |
