    This one is interesting. I isolated a limper with a 4x raise. I usually made 4x opening raises + 1x per limper but I'm finding more profitable to raise 3x+1x per limper for three reasons:
    1) They will call or 3 bet the same value range anyways
    2) The will call sometimes with weaker hands that you dominate or are ahead of
    3) Sometimes they will 3 bet you smaller giving you odds to call (like in this example).

    The villain is a typical LAG. Sample is small (44 hands) but he was 44/30 and 24% 3bet (13 possibilities). I felt he was tilting, but this might be the way he plays. He 3bet to 1$, so...I need to call 0.6 to see a flop. With 55, a tilted LAG with almost 120BBs effective...I called to make a set and stack him off (11% of the time). I expected him to cbet his entire range and if I hit a set, I planned to minraise (they always think it is a bluff). I really hoped he had something stronger than he actually had (aces or a king, for instance). Here is the action:


    No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (6 handed) - Hold'em Manager Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com
    UTG ($7.75)
    MP ($5.20)
    CO ($10)
    Hero (Button) ($11.91)
    SB ($5.55)
    BB ($13.94)
    Preflop: Hero is Button with 5, 5
    1 fold, MP calls $0.10, 1 fold, Hero bets $0.40, 1 fold, BB raises $0.90, 1 fold, Hero calls $0.60
    Flop: ($2.15) K, 4, 5 (2 players)
    BB bets $2.15, Hero raises $4.30, BB raises $10.79 (All-In), Hero calls $6.61 (All-In)
    Turn: ($23.97) 10 (2 players, 2 all-in)
    River: ($23.97) Q (2 players, 2 all-in)
    Total pot: $23.97
    Results below:
    Hero had 5, 5 (three of a kind, fives).
    BB had 3, A (high card, Ace).
    Outcome: Hero won $22.38
