(555) 88 vs Regular

[DF_Newbie]

Villain is Dariominieri. He LOVES to mess with me. Restealing with trash, limping when im in the big blind, making awful bubble calls but I've never seen him do this before.

If he's as bad as you make him out to be I'd probably call. If he bets the turn I'd fold though. By calling the flop it seems like you are willing to go all the way with your hand, which should stop any bluffing/cbetting from him.

I'm not really 100% but I play with him a decent amount and in my opinion he's not too tricky or loose. (But he probably does make poor bubble calls but EVERYONE does). Your behind here for sure and I think that if YOU think hes messing with you then he probably thinks one or more of the following:

1) you are scared money
2) you are a donkey
3) nothing, it's all in your head

Am I coming across the right way? Hard for me to explain my thoughts on this hand. Something is telling me though that you might be overthinking situations or player dynamics. Will explain myself better if you want.

FWIW - he will get a little frisky sometimes. Europeans like to play pokah! (Except Elky who just plays too many tables. + he's French, which is just weird.)

Just fold and wait for a better spot.

Jsut seem a little off to compromise your tourney on T50 blind.
Even your raise pre-flop is debatable.

With the call what was your plan? If any overcard to your pair hit, u hade a plan or a read. Given the pre-flop raise, improbable you could put him out.

Deciding to play why not to put a reraise pre-flop?

Or else, simply fold and wait for a better spot.

Playing the player in a sit and go at blinds t50, with not so deep stacks becomes difficult. U had put 1/5 of your stack pre-flop in.
