I suppose you can question preflop too. Wang was asking about this the other day. This player will virtually never raise preflop after our limp, except for AA/KK (maybe a few more, obv my sample is small), so are we better off just completing? I can't fold this in a 2/3 structure ($10/$15 blinds). Is the raise best?

Flop I continue my aggression with an OESD, standard?

Turn... I miss. Is the ace enough of a bluff scare card? Remember, he's super loose and passive... Should we just check and hope for the free card?

Preflops good. This guy will still fold some hands, the threat of a 3-bet is very low, the hand plays well against a bb's range and bb plays poorly postflop.

Id bet again on the turn because he is peeling with enough cheese that our fold equity seems good and if we get called we may have 14 outs.

When did you move up to 15/30 or are you taking a shot because of our friend?

Also since the table isnt full why havent you switched seats?

I sorta had better position on a worse player. The 6th guy was just sitting out though, so it wasn't empty.

Seat 1 was a good player, Seat 2 was a 90/30, Seat 3 was a 45/30, Seat 4 was a 30/20, Seat 5 was me, Seat 6 was the 60/0.

I don't play 15/30, but this table was so good, one of the guys I know from a different forum was playing it, and I was railing, and he had to take off, so he offered me a session stake in it. Table just broke, and I was up $46. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr... was up like $400. Oh well.

I still play 3/6 on my own money. Although, I jumped in a crazy good 10/20 full ring game that developped out of nowhere last night on AP, at like 4 AM... I've got like 150 BBs for it, so it wasn't a terrible stretch, but I was the only competent player at the table for a while, at most there were 2 other moderately competent players. I ended up $361 on that table after 24 hands, lol, then I decided I'd quit before I inevitably lost a hand, heh. Go shots!

Im not giving villain enough credit to say that the Ace will scare him. I still bet though.
