600nl the counterfloat

Villain is 26/17/2.5 over 200 hands. He calls too much and seems to float quite a bit (his fold to CB is 50%).

Is this good? His turn pot didn't seem like a jack.

make it 350. other than that it's fine from time to time imo.

I like it better with AQ or something, but if you have a feeling, looks good.

Curious as to why AQ is better, since if he calls we rarely have outs.

I think this is fine, he peels you on this flop pretty often.
The turn brings an interesting scenario, you can either double barrel or c/r. Unfortunately double barreling won't fold much, especially if he thinks you're getting tired of him. So a c/r is in order if you are looking to fight for it.

Hope that made sense..

I prefer just to fire another barrel here.

If you wanna make a checkraise though, pls don't make it 270.

I don't mind the concept of playing back if you have spotted a bad habit. But do we have to do this with 67o? I fold preflop, and if I do steal with the crappiest of hands, I will usually choose those to mix it up a bit by not c-betting.

I like the move but it will skyrocket your variance. Also I would make it a bit larger (320-350).

It's fine, just don't get carried away.

I think the nittier your image, the better this play becomes.

Still use it sparingly, and definately play trips/boats the same way if you do use this move.

If you are capable of this with big pairs 8s full or the jack and u think hes floating obv great play though the raise is def too small to make him fold anything really and a small raise designed to get called so that u can take down the river is very dangerous and expensive
