I have a pretty LAGgy image at the table at this point, raising with a lot of junk and bluffing a lot. Then this hand comes along..

I know very little about villain, he came to the table pretty recently..

Will post the rest of the hand after I get some replys.

I'd put him on a set probably. Maybe 4s or 2s? There's also the possibility of an overpair or set of Qs. You're right, difficult hand with TPTK an uncoordinated board. Think I'd probably let it go as it looks like he has been stringing you along to get the most money out of it. Then again.........

Aces/Queens or a bluff. I actually think it's a bluff (or KQ) here more often than not. If he had AA, he'd probably be worried about you catching up on the river so I'd have to say he raises more than the min.

I assume op doesnt raise with 22/44 in mp.

I'd lay it down b/c I think the villian has a set or overpair.

...Is this high stakes?

I fold preflop to an unknown.

I'm quite possibly the greatest no-limit player since the kid Ungar.

When you're on fire, seen as a lag, and have people scared, its ok to get in there and throw some chips around because people make so many more mistakes/play transparent against you. Thats just me on a good day though.

I didn't know he was "on fire" or had anybody scared. I thought he was just seen as being loose and aggressive.. I don't understand how being seen as LAG and scary changes the fact he has AQ. If your claim is that he can rep a stronger hand than calling there with with 73o works as well.

You're right...I don't know he was on fire either. Now that you mention it, AQ is a fold preflop for me to in a full ring game too but I play tighter than an olsen twin's ass in full ring.

Nice point gabe that is so true.

You know what...maybe I should try laggin it up in a full ring game instead of 6max sometime.
