Default Spot vs. active opponent

Villain is 42/33/2.1 over 120 hands. We've tangled a lot this session (mainly 3/4 handed). He raises position with ATC, but hasn't been crazy OoP when played back at post flop. Do we just pitch this hand here?

this is an easy calldown vs a hyper player like this one. he's likely to put lots of action in with any pair and lots of A and Khi type hands, on top of pure bluffs looking to blow you off of the air that you'll have most of the time.

I call down as well but I dont exactly feel great about it

I almost never open KTo UTG 6 handed. If the BB is a tricky player who is not gonna fold his blind a lot and make life hell for me postflop I definetely dont play it.

You shouldn't really have any air at all against this type of player, although he doesn't know this.

well, i'm not really taking action into acct, just the fact that the board is paired. He won't take action into acct either though [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

fold preflop

as played call down. LAGs do dumb stuff on paired boards, and he canhave worse made hands too.

Yeah, the table was currently set up w/ 2 complete nits sitting after me, so my opening requirements has loosened up pretty big, allowing me to play raised pots heads up in position against a lagtard opponent.

The thing that stuck me in this hand was that he had gone into check/call mode post flop in previous situations like this. Whenever he 3 bet post flop OoP he actually had a hand.

Thanks for the responses... I'm just getting into SH LHE so I'll be around here posting frequently.
