Blind battle against a LAG

[Absolution]

This guy is overaggressive (40/25/3) and does tend to spew post-flop.

Preflop: Hero is BB with 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, SB completes, Hero checks.

Flop: (2 SB) J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, SB calls.

When he just limps his SB I don't expect him to have any hand that hits this flop unless he has a draw. Maybe he has a weak K or Q9, but I think he is bluffing a lot here. I should have just called here since it seems to be somewhat of a ROI situation.

Turn: (3 BB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">SB raises</font>, Hero...

I wasn't expecting this. I still think he's messing around here a lot, but this is why I should be just calling against a guy like this. I guess this hand is just more of a demonstration of how not to play marginal hands against a LAG.

Id just call the flop and give him a chance to spew more on the turn and river. As played I think you can fold, even vs a lag.

I think you summed up the problem pretty well in your thoughts on the flop [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

What if you just call and the river comes a 9?

I do like calling the flop tho. So many crap hands in his range that wont be calling anything but firing again.

Turn is a fold IMO. When people c/r a brick they have a good hand more often than not.

If he spews, why not just continue to call down as opposed to scaring him out or letting him make all these moves?

I agree with Matt here.

I would just continue to call down this spewer. And even if the 9 comes, so be it if you're beat. Call it. You can not be afraid of this.

I think folding is just really weak. Dont allow yourself to be pushed around.

I like calling down from the flop on and let him bet his 43o every street. Sometimes he will have a strong hand though and then he'll play it like he did in this hand.

I fold as played.
