    Default What do you make of this?

    River raise by me is correct right? What about if he raises AI on river instead of just $30 more?

    This could easily be AJ, although I'm still calling the minraise on the river.

    You need to be betting this flop.

    How about his hand? There was a lot of dead money in the pot preflop so I figured he was doing this with any 2, but I'm still a coinflip... do you like this call?

    I don't like it because you're not closing the action.

    Yep the Fours go in the muck for me. I only consider it if I know he is a loose cannon and like Bdawg said I close the action. Maybe if he has pushed 3-5 hands in a row or if I can put him on KJ-AT type hands. I have seen too many 99-AA overcall this. Then where do you stand if you take a flop or someone else pushes for say $110?
    Playing live . . . thanks alot Bin Laden.
