Default bottom pair on draw board

BB is 30/20/2.3 LAGTAG who makes a lot of plays. He raises suited connectors in early position and will make bluffs post-flop. He will give up if he misses though and I've got him to fold on the flop before.

4-handed 0.5/1

Dealt to Hero in CO [5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]]

<font color="red">Hero Raises</font>, 2 folds, BB calls.

Flop is K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (5 SB)

BB checks, <font color="red">Hero bets</font>, <font color="red">BB raises</font>, Hero...

He will do this with any draw, any pair (including the 6) and sometimes as a bluff.

Fold, your hand needs to be a few pips stronger here IMO. Very often you're just completely dead. When you're not dead he usually as a ton of real equity or a ton of bluff equity (i.e. he has A7 and the turn is a Q and he bets - are you calling down? I'd just chuck it in. There's a point where you obviously have to call down, but even with TT this is going to be a really annoying hand for you.

agree with istewart. there's a case to made for looking to go to SD on some boards if you had 77 on the given board or the 6 was a 4 instead.

Yeah. Just fold. Even if you have the best hand your equity is not that great. Furthermore the pot is small.
