Aussie 1k, fast play or slow play

[Bond18]

PFR is established Australian player Tino Lechich. He's FT'd a WPT (a while ago i think) and people say he's good, but i don't know for sure, he was raised on live poker so who knows if he's actually good.

He doesn't know me.

I'm pretty sure if i raise and he's got an over pair he'll always stack off even if he thinks a 5 is in my range he prolly assumes i'm some donk who would slow play a 5 and raise a T.

I'm also fairly sure he knows better than to fire into 3 players with over cards but i could be wrong and this is the kind of flop a guy would do it on.

Anyone prefer a call?

It depends on your image, but I usually don't like calling here. If he has JJ you just potentially 13 outed yourself out of a huge pot.

[shaundeeb]

always always call here.

[NoahSD]

Stacks make this an easy call.

[djk123]

agree with shaun. raising here looks soooo strong that even JJ might fold. also there's still a chance he migt be cbetting AK/AQ since the board is so dry, and flatting gives him the chance to hit an A/K/Q.

[Todd Terry]

I like the raise for the reasons you gave. If you call, I think you're getting 1 more bet out of Villain at most (unless he has an overpair and fills up), if you raise, you can stack him right here.

I tend to agree with this and it far outweights the times he has JJ and a higher card comes to scare him.

[Bond18]

If this was HU i always flat, and even 3 ways since i think he fires more wide i think i call again. 4 ways i thought he was pretty strong to fire into all of us.

But you guys prolly right since you seem in agreement.

dont raise with a person behind you

call, lead turn is good depending on card
