(39) 22 vs a knucklehead
Villain is a complete knucklhead. LAG to the core.
This is the bubble of a 6man STT, 2 spots pay.

Sure, 50% he's semi-bluffing with flush draw or has a six...25% his junk has paired....25% two-overs.
Fold and find a better opportunity. |

Re: (39) 22 vs a knucklehead
I fold, even with your specific read. You're stack is in fine shape, and it's the bubble. No need to call and be involved in a t1200 pot on the turn, which is starting to closely resemble the size of your stack.

Re: (39) 22 vs a knucklehead
pitch it back into his face and push, if he has done that kind of stuff pretty often and you didn`t play back - until now.
Is the overbet any reliable tell? Like stealing or monster or does he always overbet? |

Re: (39) 22 vs a knucklehead
I think a push is very bad here for two reasons:
- He's bad, which means he likely calls too loose. There are many things emcompassed in his range that tool on your underpair, OESD, BDFD. - Seriously, it's the bubble and he covers you. |

Re: (39) 22 vs a knucklehead
Who says he will call? This type of Villains makes big bets and fold often enough to it. If you say "its the bubble", it means that its not only for us. You also assume that we`ll get enough great hands to make it easily ITM. This is just not true. You can`t play like a nit on the bubble.
I agree, there are better spots to get the money in, but this is not a horrible one. Villain could litterly have ATC. And dont underestimate the psycho impact if you push. He`ll notice that and you have a good chance to win the next pot(s) on the flop. |

Fold. The pot is basically nothing compared to the stack sizes. You can find a better spot to let him bluff his money to you than here.
