I only have 35 hands on SB and he is something like 22/5/1

pop it to 55, you can *probably* fold to 3 bet

"pop it to 55, you can *probably* fold to 3 bet"

I would fold to a 3bet like 100% of the time i think, but how mutch of his range am i ahead of here?

[dmitch442]

I would smooth call there personally see what he does on river, but most likely call down.

Yes, there is nothing wrong with going into cheap showdown mode here and this is not the sort of hand I'd be wanting to make a big pot with. Making a big-ish raise and folding to a reraise, or to a call and bet on the river kinda seems like ensuring you never win at showdown - save that for really strong hands or bluffs.

[adanthar]

Your hand *sucks* against a 22/5 passive...the only thing you're ahead of is AxQh or maybe AxTh.

I call here but strongly consider folding to a real river bet (if he checks, value betting is fine).

[adanthar]

Hmm I got some details wrong in my head when I replied...he has Ax here sometimes, too. But Ax will very rarely bet the river and it'll very rarely be a value bet (blocking bet that you can call, maybe.)

This isn't too many hands so I guess you can also call 2/3 on the river solely because your read isn't that strong.

[david3p]

you have less than 10 dollars invested in a hand that can potentially loose you significantly more, you have second best hand way too often here and those loose the most money i would personally either minraise turn representing huge hand hoping he will fold to the smaller 'bluff' or just lay it down o the turn

[FGators]

I like just calling on the turn. If he fires the river again significantly (like $30+) I am getting out. Obviously check if he checks.
