Default Re: $100 - Do I make the hero call?

Good idea but the guy dont look aggressive enough to bluff missed draws so I prefer a b/f

As played, I prob fold this. More because I think its close and dont want the variance then I know thats the right thing to do

fold IMHO.
That's a BIG bet.
Seems to me like he wants it to look like a bluff and wants you to call.
Probably a set.

I would lead on the river with a blocking bet and fold to a push.

I bet the river here, about half the pot or something like that, and fold to a push. As played, I think it is a pretty easy fold, just wait for a better spot against such a player. Call if you like variance.

I think against donkeys like this, check/call &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; bet/fold, because of how often they have missed draws (and bluff with them).

I've made a ton of money calling BS shoves in spots like this.

I find a call here

Ot, why is is that his af of 1 is more aggressive then 20/15/4?
It is within how it's calculated I would assume but what exactly is it?

Aggression factor is (raise% + bet%)/ call%. So if somebody only plays AA, they are going to always be raising and betting and probably never calling so their af would be infinite (or undefined).

If someone is playing every hand the exact opposite is true, and if somebody is still raising and betting just as often as they call despite the fact that they play every hand, then clearly they are being very aggressive given that they are often doing so with weak hands.
