TT OOP vs small 4-bet

[Jamougha]

Villain is a tagfish who probably lurks occasionally and learns just enough to get himself into trouble. He makes moves at the wrong times, doesn't follow though when he should and vica versa, uses weird and awful bet sizing, gets too tricky. y'all know what I mean.

Here my feel was that he was making a straight rebluff, and I elected to call. I don't really like this with 125BB in retrospect. So,

a) is this bad
b) if so, at what stack size is it better to call the 4-bet than to 5-bet. Or is there in practise never a point where it's better to call a 4 bet OOP with TT than to fold/rr?

Are you auto folding when a J,Q,K or A comes on the flop? This is why I think just calling is bad. This hand is so hard to play when flop hits with an overcard or not. If you think he is bluffing, shouldn't you just push pre?

[Jamougha]

I will certainly felt on some boards with an overcard. Yeah, I tend to agree that I should have shoved pre. But what should I do with 200BB? 300? 150? That's what I'm wondering.

maybe you shouldnt 3 bet PF ooP 200BB deep vs this kind of opponent?! I might even flatcall JJ very deep. He seems sorta tough, although bad from your description.

fold to 4-bet!!

eh, i dunno man. if i was gonna continue with the hand i'd just shove rather than call the 4bet.

qft, also your hand looks pretty [censored] strong to villian and I'm sure he is going to play a lot of hands slowly - including AA (ie possibly checking the flop) and it's not going to be easy to make good decisions imo.

this fourbet doesn't look at all small to me, looks pretty standard. it costs you a bit more than 15% of your stack to call it; that's about the size I'd make it with anything that I'm fourbetting with

If my hand look strong then why would he check the flop with AA? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Anyway, as I said I don't think his is good with these stacks. What do I do if I cover him, for example?

[Number27]

If you think his 4bet comprises all of his open range then I think shove is optimal. Assuming his open range is 22+,suited connectors, AJo+, A2s+, etc then we have to push.

Even if he only calls with JJ+,AKo,AKs we immediately show big profits because his calling range is so much narrower than his 4bet range.
