easy fold? 25nl.

Opp is is SLA, my image at the table over the last few hands has been pretty loose, i had a good run of cards that didnt get showdown...Opp only bought in for $15 and hadnt shown down anything...His massive reraise just didnt make any sense...it wasnt anything like his usual betting pattern, which makes me wonder if he was bluffing me, trying to be the table sherriff or something?

good fold.

don't get in too deep with hands like this @ 25nl. Try to, as a policy, only play big pots with big hands. It'll do wonders for your variance.

On a dry board like that I'd just let him have it if he hasn't been out of line before.

I like the advice. I don't play big pots with hands like this.

But reads can go a long way here. If that's not his usual betting pattern, is he trying to fold you, or is he trying to make the maximum from a loose player?

Anyway, if you call this bet, who's being the table sheriff?

You're not beating anything but a bluff. Don't get involved.
