Default 2/5 NLO8 live

2/5 NLO8 uncapped, 7-handed

Villian is weak, stacks off w/ hi draw hand-no low, on low boards, also felts 3rd/4th nut low w/ no hi hand.
Relevant stacks are about 1500.

Hero has A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] in CO

Folded to me, I open for 20, button(villian)calls,sb calls, bb folds.

Flop: 4 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

sb bets bets 40 into 65 pot. I pop it to 160. Button calls. SB folds.

Villian calls with wide range here, 2 pair, set, gutshot, A5/A6xx etc.

Pot=425
Turn: 10 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Check and see if villain will take the free card. You have 9 outs to a nut flush, 3 jacks to give you a straight, and 15 cards that give you the nut low. So if you check, he pots and you call, you have plenty of outs to warrant sticking around.

It depends on how agressive the guy is.. if he is very agressive I'll check, if he is calling his chips off, I'll bet 300 or so.. from your description it's not going to be too hard to get paid off if u hit, so you don't have to get too tricky with the hand.

LOL how bout doing the math first, and then not betting 70% if you have to call a push? OK, I'll do it for you. If you bet 300 and he shoves, it'll be 1000 to call to win 2000, and you'll have to call with 10-12 nut high cards and 9 nut low cards. So, shove if you're gonna bet, but checking is probably fine, too.

What do you think he has? No clue? If he's as weak as a straight draw or just a "good" low draw (maybe either of those with a pair), and you're going to reload if you shove and lose, then shoving is the clear play IMO.

I would of liked to c.r ai, but he was so passive I chose to shove. His range is so wide here, I felt I was ahead the majority of time. Just posted 2 see how others play it...sometimes I think my lines are little 2 spewy/aggro.

He snap called with A356 rainbow. River J.

Holybull: No, live game @ a casino (im cdn.)...the dealers have not been trained to deal pot-limit so game stays nl style when we can get it going.
