+EV?

[sweetlemon69]

Villan was 57/40 over about 150 hands. Is this move +EV?

I like it. I actually reraise against this guy's PFR. He's got trash most of the time, so put him to the test with some real cards. As played I'd probably try to get it all in 95% of the time at some point in the hand.

This is fine. If the lagg then re-raises you on the flop, it becomes a more interesting hand. Are we still wanting to get it all in?

Villain is short, so of course. If he's full, though, I fold to a push without a read that he bluffs with air, because unlike the common micro consensus, pushing isn't a bluff most of the time.

Excellent, thanks Freechu. He ended up reraising and leaving himself with like a dollar... so I raised him all in. He ended up having a low pocket pair hoping for his 2 outer lol.

I don't see the point in raising the flop. Don't forget that there is a 3rd person in the hand. I think all you're doing with a flop raise is putting yourself closer to commitment with a hand that doesn't do well against a 3-bet on the flop from AAHONDOAA.

I'd prefer to just call and see what AAHONDOAA does. Also, when you raise, you're pushing villain off of hands that he might bet the turn with, thus losing value.
