Cmon guys, a passive player with 0.4 AF is not going to raise all in here with less then AA/kk or set, he is not even betting a fd/sd here.

Unless he was thrown around like a little bitch lately and op is one of the active players at the table, but this thing should be mentioned in "reads" imo.

is it fair to say that in general someone this passive isn't even going to be pushing big draws? i was thinking AA KK when i called.
i think there is a section in the psychology if poker that talks about this type of player and how they like to see cards and see what other people have, thus they are v passive and dont really think about Fold ev with big draws or folding out tp weak kicker etc.
i hadn't seen villain push any draws and from his stats i dont think its in his range tbh [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Yeah take my words out of context, what i meant is we didnt put much money in pot + opponent is very passive so given most optimistic range (imo) we are favourite 57% of the time.

Im a hero caller and im folding this if table plays normaly ofc.

hh is screwed... how did villain bet first? I guess you checked; w/e. I still cannot fold top two in a limped pot- even VERy passive players will go nuts here with an overpair, tho not too many of them open limp the button with them (tho with these stats I wouldn't be surprised). I still felt this here to be honest; I'd say his massive overbet shoulve would probably indicate he has QQ-AA and just wants to get it all in here and not gamble with Jx or draws or somethin- he doesn't realize u have t2. If anyone overshoves a set here, even someone ridic passive, I'd be shocked. Slowplayed overpair is definitely more of his range than a set here. Jus don't fold in this spot- cooooler
