    wondering where the 3 extra chairs at my 6max table came from

    Default $10NL v Maniac

    Vil is running 59/21/2.2 over 75 hands. Based on that and the limped pot, my range on him is ATC. I flop TP +OESD on a FD board so lead out PSB to 1) deny FD odds and 2) to start to build pot.
    Q1: I called his min-raise based on my outs and implied odds. Couldn't figure out what range this would put him on?
    Q2: Hit trips + OESD with this Turn. He min-raises me again, and I shove based on current hand and draws and to deny him drawing odds. Bad shove?
    Q2b: What's the best way to read these min-raises? ...esp with his stats and on this board? I honestly ended up just playing my cards as I couldn't figure out where to start on putting him on a range...

    Without putting him on a range do we really have any implied odds? Generally against maniacs and stations (this guy looks somewhere in between) we want to play big cards so we can get value from tpgk-type hands. With these little boards it's too hard to figure out what they're giving us action with. That said, I think we're good here often enough to call, and they're bad enough to pay off the str8 if it hits.

    I like it.

    I find a lot of the time this is a 65,64,66, 88+ kind of hand, but the range is still huge, and you beat most of it. good shove imo.
    Check out my self-deprecation here!
