This is an easy call for implied odds right?

Villain is a weakish lagg who stacks off light.

You may not need implied odds here since you may very well be ahead.

I agree with AHiltz. Id also rather call preflop and spike a set given your read. Unless of course you mean he likes to stack of with less than 66.

were 250bb deep, so i'd rather flop a set in a reraised pot with position.

Standard call in position. There's a good chance a broadway brings equity against some opponents, but maybe not this one. It sucks, because the villain gives so much value to your strong hands longterm, that it leaves you bordering on the edge of correct, looking into the chasm of spewy in this spot.

Yea but if he stacks off light anyway then youve still got a decent chance In a normal raised pot. It mostly comes down to his 4 betting frequency with weakish hands that still destroy 66 postflop.

As it happened you hit one of the best flops you could but what do you do when its reraised and the flop has 2 overcards? 3 overs?

If hes stacking off fairly light then that means you are going to struggle to push him off middle pair type hands easily and you wont know if hes got a stackoffable hand until youve committed alot of chips.

How loose are we talking here? What stats?

pelion,

He wasn't really CRAZY loose or anything, but just your standard loose and aggressive. He's not so dumb that he doesn't fold dominated hands to reraises, but he's probably bad enough to make huge mistakes in threebet pots out of position.

BTW, even against a complete retard, its VERY difficult to get allin for 250bb vs a 1 pair hand in a standard raised pot.

I made the reraise because I take it down pre a lot and when i don't i build a pot in position with a pretty good hand vs a worse player.

I like the way Renton played this.

awesome, just checking.

I 'd the turn and won a huge pot from AA.
