Default Dead Pot Donk

Spewy LAG is stacking off, Villains only played 3 hands at the table.


Limit Holdem Ring game
Limit: $3/$6
5 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is Button with Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
UTG folds, CO calls, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises</font>, SB folds, BB calls, CO calls.

Flop: J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (6.5SB, 3 players)
<font color="#cc0000">BB bets</font>, CO calls, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#cc0000">BB calls all-in $2.35</font>, CO calls.

Turn: 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (6.14BB, 2 players + 1 all-in - Main pot: 5.93BB, Sidepot 1: 0.22BB)
<font color="#cc0000">CO bets</font>, Hero ?

I guess this could be a bluff with a weak J or something but only getting 3 to 1 on a calldown?

Preflop: Generally I like to isolate with hands that have better unimproved showdown value. But if villian is especially bad or doesn't go to many showdowns then raising is certainly fine.

Flop: Good

Turn: I call down.

If there is a spewy LAG in the blinds who wants to stack of I am not sure raising is the play preflop. You want to play the hand vs the idiot limper and the BB. But raising doesnt accomplish much as you will never isolate the limper.

So I would just overlimp.


Call down the donk. He is bad enough to make plays at empty pots and worse J's and pp's is in his range.
