Every weird situation in the book.

3 handed, yeehaw that's weird! Was six max then it died.

This guy just sat down a while ago but has made it clear that his raising standards are holding two cards instead of one. Yeehaw that's weird!

Other guy hasn't been around long and obviously didn't buy in with much--he limp-capped all in! Yeehaw that's weird!

LAGTard seems to have given up! Yeehaw that's weird! I probably have the best hand now, but enough to bet and try to push him off? Is he setting me up for something screwy? Does the limp-capper protecting the pot affect anything here? Yeehaw this is weird!

If you had a chance to win the whole pot outright by betting here then I'd say go for it. But with button all in for a large portion of the pot I'd check behind here and try to hit something on the river.

[dchz]

i think this in fact does change things if there is an all in, you can push him off the hand but you may lose to the all in anyways if he doesn't call.. which would gain you 0 bets, but if you don't have the best hand and he calls you lose 1 Big bet...

i'm leaning toward a check here and see the river for cheap

[freedom18]

i woulda raised the flop to be honest... maybe we can catch a free card as well as c-bet our aggression preflop. we have 2 marginal backdoor draws

Then given the turn i would check behind here and fold the river UI

*grunch*
I say bet. If he c/r you then fold. Not sure what hold he has, but the 7 on the turn is an odd card to slow up on.

One question I have. Did you 3 bet pf to get rid of BB? Since AJo holds up better with less people? I know this is a noob question, just curious your reasoning.

[Romulus141]

Holy strangeness. My guess is the button just thought "What the hell, I'm almost out of money anyway" and capped for fun.

I guess I'm leaning towards a check on the turn too. With the button all-in, you could get rid of SB but still lose to a pair of twos or something else that's equally embarrassing. There's only 2 small bets in that side pot, so it's hardly worth the effort. See the river, and see what our friend does. If it's a blank of sorts that doesn't seem dangerous, and he bets out, I'd probably call, because he's laggy and is betting because of my "weak" check. If he checks to me again on the river, I'm checking through unless I improve, it isn't worth betting at him, having him call, and then get shown a pair of twos or nines.

[tyler_cracker]

Yeah, check behind. LAGtards don't get bet off hands, yo. Plus, you picked up a sexy little gutshot.

I then call any reasonable river card. I'm not worried about all-in guy; he could be stacking off with just about any two.

[btspider]

i check and call a riv bet. i think you are drawing.

[Buzz-cp]

This is a clear bet imo. If he folds you have a better chance of taking the main pot. Your fate is sealed with all-in. This is not the same as stealing on the river. You could have 6 outs if you are not ahead of both of them.

edit: wow i sort of grunched--didn't realize people are saying check this. WTF man. This is 3-handed and we have AJ-hi!

[jumbojacks]

Easy bet.
