Aces.

Unless he is a superdonk, he's not doing this with any hands other than Aces or Kings.

As a matter of fact, some donk just did that on my table, but the other donk/calling station folded the river, so I didn't get to see what he had.

Anyways, I think you are beat, but it's hard to fold there. Cheap showdown is what you want.

so you call down knowing it's Aces or Kings?

Yeah, good point.

But I suck, so how could I fold a full house... laugh.gif

These are things that I'm lost on. A read would help a lot here. I don't know. I think I would call down, but like I said before, who knows whether I'm a winning player or not. He could easily have AK here as well, depending on his level of donkdom.

I really have no idea, and this is why I would call down. I think maybe 9-1 might be ok for this though, as he could not have aces or kings enough to make it profitable?

Maybe, I don't know. Why don't Screech or Aseem ever come to the micro-limit room? We could use them here.

Zach.

BTW - I finally had a nice plus session in LHE tonight 8) +34 BB's, after falling behind as much as 20 laugh.gif

If this is a wa/wb situation, like I think it is, you should probably just check/call down after the flop to win the most from the hands that are weaker than yours and lose the least from hands that have you pwned.

I've seen people limp-reraise with AK and worse (and, of course, noted the behaviour). Calling down here is fine, absent a read on villian's LRR standards.

I'm tempted to cap this pf. Since UTG is alread first in pf, chances are he's limp re-raising with some type of suited connector/small pp.

After he 3-bets the flop, the chance goes up that he has a high pp. But he's still played the hand bizarrely, so maybe he just wants you to think that.

Call down.

I like it. I've seen a lot of limp-re-raises with really odd holdings at 6-max.
Verdimme
I play it the same.
Actuary
he had 55
Briguy
He had two 3's of a kindseses? There's a former poster here who probably thinks villian's double 3-spot should outrank your full house. I won't name names.

People do this with all kinds of garbage hands, I think they get mad that you raised them so they re-raise. Unless the guy is a rock I call down.[/b]

Anyone erratic enough to limpraise is erratic enough to play a low pocket pair, or AK like this.

Obviously it's more likely that he has an overpair given post flop action, but this would be a TERRIBLE fold absent of a dead on read.

Limp raise is as often someone making a "brilliant" slow play as it is someone getting pissy and bitter about others raising.
