Default jt tp sb v bb 6.50

Villain was 30/20/0 in a limited amount of hands. Villain has shown that he has no clue how to play sngs. His range is: 88-55, A8s, A5s, K8s, QJs, Q8s, J2s+, T8s+, 98s, 87s, A8o, A5o, K8o, Q8o, J2o+, T8o+, 98o, 87o or a complete bluff. If I reraise he's coming along with tp, maybe A8. I think I played this bad, I was getting emotional tired of being pushed around early on (i.e. tilting a bit). I knew I was a favorite vs villain's range about 70%, but I really don't need to gamble here.

If your read is solid, than the play is explainable. you did hit runner runner straight at the end, so lucky you...
and it is true, no need to gamble with 46BB stack, i know o wouldn't, but if the villain is the one who pushed me early on and show nothing, i'd show strength also.
And in the end if villain really doesn't know what he is doing, then a solid read is also questionable,...

br, darks

How about check calling the flop? Keep the pot smaller and let him bluff at it (which he most likely will, given the stats). I don't think the rrai is worth it at L3. I wouldn't put that much stock on reads after such a limited amount of hands.

I needed a kick in the nuts for playing this hand badly. I was lucky in that I was correct in that he had an oesd, I was wrong that he could fold it. He sucked out, I resucked for a tie. How the [censored] the donk could find a reason to call an ai with just an oesd given our stacks is about as good as the reason I had for shoving.

Most of the time I lead for 50 then shut it down. Given this donk I would have called his raise. Check/called a small bet on the turn and of course jammed the pot on the river.

Wouldn't it be better to just call and keep the pot small? It really sucks going AI so early, as the donk might have just about anything. Am I correct thinking this is a bad move?
