Laggy McAggressivestein... who likes these hands?
Hand #1.
BB is remarkably fishy at 73/3/5.00 over 60 hands and his min bet on the flop means absolutely he has crap. CO has your typical grinder stats of around 28/12, but I have not been watching him very closely. Who likes it?

Hand #2. I have played with villain before, he is pretty aggressive and is about 50/22. I use this line infrequently with TPGK, but try to avoid using it on a consistent basis because I hate inflating the pot with top pair. I feel like if I check here, villain (any laggy villain, really) pushes me out on the turn. Good/Bad? Both Standard? Laggy?

Re: Laggy McAggressivestein... who likes these hands?
hand 1 - why would you want to get the BB and UTG to fold by pushing?
hand 2 - why bet half pot if you're worried about getting pushed off your hand? |

Re: Laggy McAggressivestein... who likes these hands?
I certainly like hand 2.
Hand 1 I'm not too sure. I don't think you FE is great vs CO, so we might as well call with position and hope the BB and/or UTG tag along |

Do you ever raise a more reasonable amount ($40-ish to go?) for the free card? Or are you flat calling this most of the time and hoping the fish come swimming along? In 2, I think a $20 works just as fine as a $30/$35 bet against someone with this villain's stats. If he pushes, I fold, and save myself $10/$15. |

Hand1 getting BB to stick around is more important than a free card IMO.

Re: Laggy McAggressivestein... who likes these hands?
First hand I think depends alot on the metagame.
Second hand, this is a situation I specifically try to avoid by either raising/folding PF with this type of hand. If it's a good/tricky button player and I'm strictly at the table taking advantage of fish, I probably just muck. Against anyone else I probably 3bet. As played, I think you're clueless as to what he can have if he's a good player. Might be better off folding to his flop raise, or re-popping him. |
