$3/$5 NLHE $300 buy-in.

LAgg has over $700. He's been bullying the table and timed a couple hands right. It's really been funny to watch. Lots of donking into pots and really obvious steals people are folding to because they suck at poker.

I have around $250 because I'm running like shit. Probably a tight image.

LAgg Limps from EP
I make it $25 with Aces.
One of the blinds calls.

$75 in the pot, $225 behind.
:Qh:

Blind checks, LAgg bets $40. Call and see if he spews off (hard to tell, I've really liked his post-flop decisions so far) or raise to see if he refuses to fold? Given my read, I was going to re-pop his ass with anything if I got into a hand with him and feel kinda lame slow playing. Also donking flops is really popular in this game and I really like re-poping them light so showing down Aces here has really good meta-game value. Or am I just over-thinking this?

the call is fine, villain has no more than 5 outs and you have position on him. Also, if blind folds, pot is $155 with $185 behind, so you can shove on the turn no matter what villain does, and they may still feel committed.

Are you on the forums doing the werewolves again?

Soo... you forgot to run that errand, but you had time to werewolf? Wtf?

Raise is fine for metagame but I assume his spew range > his raise calling range which is nice for you. (Unless he already knows you've been raising light there, in which case I like a raise).

I'd go for call and try to get one of the blinds in with Qx too. It's such a safe board that you're stacking off on any turn regardless.

Having 50 BB here helps your situation because you don't have to worry about being able to get your stack in. With 100 BB this is an insta-raise everytime.
