btw, i still suspect its a fold and i did fold, still not sure ofc... i kinda strongly suspect he will pull this BS with stuff like naked 7x, misguided semibluff with A4, A5 or A3... does that change things?

not really. i can't see a situation where calling this is good. like ever. against a random hand it's barely a call.

meh, I actually don't mind a call here. Considering this board is draw heavy as [censored], I prolly call here. If I'm thoroughly beating him though, I find this to be an easy fold.

You seem to have a pretty good idea how his range looks like, so you basically ask sb to do the math for you by starting this thread?!

This hand is similar to one posted by HEK where hero had 66 on a 345 board and consensus was to c/r ai. The reverse here is villain doesn't need a strong hand for your hand to have little value.

hes folding a huge amount of flops and is generally super readable postflop.

So it should all just come down to a math problem, no?

That's a good reason to fold here.

[/ QUOTE ]

no its not.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm talking about here as in on the flop...

[/ QUOTE ]

ur still wrong

[/ QUOTE ]

If someone folds a ton of flops, when he doesn't he probably has a hand right? (I understand you think most of these hands are draws). The bigger reason to fold here is because you're so sure you can outplay him in the longterm and pick up so many pots when he folds too many flops instead of risking so much on a big call which could be close to a flip or dead. Could you please explain your reasoning why it's still wrong?
