Default Blind Battle Play-Along for fun & profits

Full ring table, but a bunch of people sitting out and/or changing over, so we're playing with 6 for this hand. Hero's table image is pristine...a bunch of monsters that got big action have me up nearly 50 BBs in 90 mins at the table. Pretty much every hand I've taken to showdown I either won or checked through after being rivered. It's not that I'm playing great poker so much as I'm running way hot.

I've tangled with BB before on 3/6, 5/10, and 6max tables, but only for a total of around 200 hands. He's a little loose (even for 6max) and a little too aggressive. He hasn't struck me as the type that takes notes or develops reads on his opponents, so I doubt he's got much on me if he even recognizes my screenname. He hasn't been at the table for my full run, but I haven't gotten out of hand since he sat.

I think I played this one correctly at each action, but I'd love to see what y'all think & what you guys would do & why. Most of it seemed pretty obvious to me during the hand...I dunno, we'll see if this thread ends up being worth anything. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

meh. With the 1/3 blind structure, and a loosish laggy kind of BB, I would probably just fold. But that wouldn't make for much of a play along, and I don't hate it, so, sure...I am on board.

I could only consider raising here.

If he is super aggresive, and if your raise nearly always results in him re-raising. I would consider calling first in and betting out or check raising no matter what is on the board.

Some people play completely retarded when they think their blind is being stolen and by calling first in and then checkraising, it appears you have a much stronger hand than you have.

Against this guy i would raise

Raise. Obviously?

So he 3 bets and you call. What's the flop?

Well, unless it's a play-along like last time where Hero folded preflop (also known as the-shortest-play-along-in-the-history-of-small-stakes) you raise. And I think it's proper to do so.

Unless he's so loose you can apply the limp play.
