Default Call this push?

This is a hand from 5R on stars. Villan hasn't been very active, other than that no reads on him.

How often do you call here, given his range bellow?

Do we see overs here enough times to make the call profitable?

Preflop raise is ok.

I probably fold to the re-raise by the BB because with his stack size you *know* he's jamming the flop and you are not getting the right odds to outflop his range based on this read:

[ QUOTE ]
Villan hasn't been very active

[/ QUOTE ]

Inactive villians usually don't pick the BB to start messing around with re-raises for 1/2 their stack.

Now that you get to the flop, its probably EV neutralish leaning towards -EV

Woodguy

This is similar to a hand I just posted, but i had a distinct read on my opponent as someone who I thouhgt was trying to push me around because I had been very aggressive.

In your case, you say you have no reads and he hasn't played many pots. Thats a strong indicator you are in bad shape. He is either pushing with a better hand that has you beat and he is afraid of the flush draw or he has two overs with the flush draw and a small possibility he is on a total bluff. In most of those scenarios you are in bad shape.

Given your lack of read on this guy, I fold easily preflop.
