Boumbastic opens light, aggressivly value-bets and reads hands very well. Aside from opening too many hands, I really like his game. Last time we mixed it up my timing to look him up sucked.

Lowball25 is the table donator. Too loose and passive (juding from an orbit or so.) Not sure if he's a station post-draw or not.

I just sat down and intend to stay at the table for a while.

I suck at 5 card draw

I think that with your reraise preflop and taking one card off, they have to put you on high 2 pair, since they both discarded 3 they will probably not call with less then 2 pair.

With a raise and a call before you why not dump it preflop ? was your intention to establish a looser image ?

I don't think a call here is a big mistake.

I also think this is a great time to get caught bluffing.
