Default 50NL: Playing more pots against weak players

Full Tilt Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.25/$0.50 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker HH Converter)

SB: $49.50
BB: $74.65
UTG: $74.45
MP: $50.00
Hero (CO): $192.35
BTN: $96.90

Reads: <font color="blue">BB is playing very badly, 76/6/2(50); MP looks like a decent TAG, 19/15/2(309). This is almost always a fold pre-flop, but BB is playing so badly that I want to play as many hands as possible against him or her.</font>

Preflop: Hero is dealt 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (6 Players)
UTG folds, <font color="red">MP raises to $1.75</font>, Hero calls $1.75, 2 folds, BB calls $1.25

Flop: ($5.50) 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (3 Players)
BB checks, <font color="red">MP bets $3.25</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $15.25</font>, BB calls $15.25, <font color="red">MP raises all-in to $48.25</font>, Hero ???

If you want to play more pots with BB, you should isolate him, not call raises from MP. As played call.

Hero thought so. He got the perfect flop and people are going all in and he doesn't know if he wants to go all in or not, so it makes you wonder about PF. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I would say auto-fold PF unless MP was as deep as Hero.

I have seen BB get all-in w/ J high, shouldn't I be trying to play as many pots as possible against him or her?
