A5 makes trip 5s from bb

Villain is unknown in this hand. As you all know I'm trying to break my nitty ways, but I'm trying not to spew. I put this guy on precisely 67 or 5 with a lower kicker. I didn't think a boat plays this fast. Standard? I usually get weak/tight and fold in this spot.

Any idea how he got his stack?

I'd give him the benefit of the doubt here and not play a big one.

Playing "weak tight" facing extreme strength from a probable passive player is not such a bad policy.

lahoozer,

I think this one is a close one. I think I call here, because his overbet seems fishy. If he has 67 for the straight you have loads of outs to boat up

All he beats is 5-6, which constitutes a relatively small portion of his opponents range, and he's getting very poor odds. I think this is a fold.

his turn raise seems so big for a monster...

He probably flopped a straight and is freaking out because the board paired.

yea i think the straight is more likely than boat

Holy christ that's funny. I just imagine a guy screaming at his computer "FUCK YOU ANOTHER PAIRED FKING BOARD! ALL IN WHORES! NOOOOOOOO!"
