Youve shown way more strength than you actually have and he still keeps coming. Fold. I probably just call it preflop too and go for the set/ all undercards and a suspicious cbet
gabe: Ive dropped almost 100k in the past 35 days.

I like the PF raise. 90% of the time the button folds and leaves you isolated with position holding a high PP.

It all depends on raising ranges. At my stakes its fairly loose passive (although 10NL is seeming more aggressive than the $5 at stars). Against a loose aggressive player Id reraise but against a loose passive they almost always have at least AK, probably QQ, KK, AA. make the set and they wont be able to put it down. At higher stakes you probably have to start getting a little more sophisticated as people are raising more hands and paying you off less with just an overpair.

Make it $5 PF.

I would just push on the flop. Big pot and you probably have 7 outs if called.

I can understand just calling here pf. Without reads, I can't really give a best answer. It's an idiot short stack.

Unfortunately I had no read. Player was rather non-descript.

Renton will become famous soon enough
i would have c-bet closer to the whole pot to force the possible straight draws to make a pot odds mistake.

How do you figure? If they call are you firing a second barrel?
