I put this up here because I want to try and describe villian and see if you would call. Villian attacked limpers, more than once. Once on button I limped in with JQ and got re raised AI. Whenever the sb completed, they would go AI. Hadn't reraised a stanard raise. Very aggressive preflop, didn't play many hands after flop. I don't think they like postflop play. A range of hands would either be an underpair 55-99 or more likely a hand like 10J - AJ. Take a flip here if that is what it is suppose to be?

OK well first hand, he shouldnt be calling this withou Ax and the way he plays it lets me belive that is what he has your beat, and NEVER let an ace fall and check the turn shows HORRIBLE weakness says you were good b4 that ace now ur scared and letting him have the pot...

Second hand is a race best casescenerio do u wanna gamble this early with chips?

1 - Yes I knew it was soooo weak to check the turn. I knew it. The only reason I did was because it is the first hand. The pot is 1000, what kind of bet could I make on the turn? I have 1000 chips left. When he checked I thought he prolly already had me beat on the flop, possibly a 7? But who knows, maybe he called my flop bet with 5 6 or something stupid, I don't know this guy yet. When the he bet on the river I thought I had to call. I didn't think he was calling the flop bet with AX, not even AJ+ with the amount I bet. I can beat a lot of hands here, but some cruuuuuuush me.

2 - The reason I put it on here is because I think it might not be a race. WHat do you think of people who attack limpers? This person was an AI preflop raiser.. even when they had a decent amount of chips, their raises were always 4-5x bb or just AI. Could I have them dominated? I guess I could, but do you think the chance of racing is higher than the chance they are just trying to say, "hey, no limping."

About the first hand, Whenever i get AJ+ early in SnG's i raise to 100 i dont even fuck around with 3x to 60 get way too many callers... I also call raises to 100 with AJ+ even 55+ when im in the right mood because the fact is most people know 3x raise to 60 chips at that point still brings many callers and thats not what you want this any prime hand... So the fact is he has a huge range to be on

That right there says more then not you are behind here so unless like ive been saying you wanna gamble fold this river, you still have 1100 chips and your not getting good odds on that river bet its about half the pot... some can argue you can call that but #1 dont check that turn if you do check raise to show you are very strong and if he calls or comes over ur out of hand... or just flat out bet it... or check check and fold when he bets on river...

With the range u put him on your lookin at

So honestly its very easy to lay this down here unless your in a gambling mood... if hes been doing thsi with medial hands maybe its a setup for landing a monster and pulling the same play so he gets callers like this...? Maybe im givin him too much credit but still i rather not race i rather know im ahead then rip into his stack

Hand 1 - looks good. TT plays this hand the same. I'm paying off the A most of the time. He calls 330 there with AK? If so, GG him. Giving free card on the turn is fine.

Hand 2 - I love limping, but you can't limp here. If you do, you certainly must call the push. You said yourself the guy attacks limpers, what did you think would happen?!!? But don't limp, these blinds are worth stealing, you have the best hand.
