Default $16 Stars - 99 on the bubble against lag.

Villain was like 40/20/4 from 40 hands. Is this spewy on the bubble? Just push? Fold pre?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (4 handed) Poker Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

Button (t4305)
SB (t2075)
Hero (t2530)
UTG (t4590)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t450</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Hero calls t300.

Flop: (t975) 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets t600</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t1950</font>, UTG folds.

Final Pot: t2175

As played I am CRAI on the flop, but I think shoving pre is better vs a LAG. You don't want to have to c/f on overcard flops and spew 300 chips.

If you think you just have really low FE I see why you would call PF my standart here would be to push.

Even if he is a LAGTARD who will call with any hand he raised I don't think pushing is bad here.

I think a stop and go might work well in this spot, especialy since we have the option of a stop&amp;CRAI with his 4 aggression when the flops are favorable for our hand

I don't like how this is played PF, you don't have the chips to simply make a call here.

Either fold or push pre-flop. IMO it's a very easy push.

Are you saying that if the flop is unfavorable, you lead?
