Nitty old guy limps UTG with 6k stack. Hero makes it $60 OTB with AhAd, villain calls.

Flop: Js 5h 6h ($135). Villain donk shoves for eff $5000.

Fold face up and say: "Thanks for saving me a boatload of cash Gramps."

I guess you might be good a bit here vs. an AJ that is terrified of your maniacal styles, but I'm not calling this without a set. Honestly I'd like to encourage the AARP member to do that more often.
Playing live . . . thanks alot Bin Laden.

Short Answer: Don't 500bb+ deep.
Longer Answer: He'd do this with a lot of crap. Some is better than you, some is worse.

No, I'm saying you don't know what his range is.

It's probably retarded and if you knew this would be a very easy spot. But there is a lot of uncertainty in both directions.

You never will have anywhere close to enough information in a live game barring tells, etc. The way you deal with uncertainty in the face of extreme aggression is going all-in with some of your better hands. Can't do this when you're absurdly deep. Maybe he built up a stack and didn't intend to be there. Still, something to think about...
