    Default Was this a good or bad push?

    Malc isn't a very good player, and would bet out with any hand that large.

    Reraise preflop and this might work. As its played you have to fold on that flop to his bet.

    yeah I knew I should have re-raised, but I was actually trying to trap him because I put him on about the hand he had..

    As you can see, I ended up trapping myself..

    Had problems with this myself.
    I just call preflop. Ive got to have him dominated. Seen as i havent reraised i put it down if it misses me, not losing a lot just one pot. if it hits then im mr calling station until i push the turn or river or just extract.
    Imo you will get more out of these guys if you call behind with better hands. When you hit and he hits you can probably destack him, whereas if you reraise it can give you hand away a touch imo. I wouldnt respect a reraise preflop and then push on that board im calling everyday. If you have an overpair ill pay that no problem.
    But then i dont think im raising his hand anyway.
