Opp is a nit reg who plays about 15/7. Imo his limp here isnt that strong since at this table he has actually been alot my active than his stats represent. There is a fish on the CO here, SB is super nit and BB is active-ish player but still a tag. Opp has been open raising a fair amount at this table. Also I havbe a note on him that his lead are made hands, he leads TP hands alot. Im not sure exactly why he would do that but im also abit unsure how he plays sets. Id be sure if he leads TP tho he probaby wudnt fold his hand since why wud he even bother to lead then.

Is this super standard?

Opp was about 28/14, not too aggro at all. I called with position plus BB is a masshusive fish.

Is this too weaktight? It makes me sick.

hand 1 i like and play the same with your reads.

hand 2 is debateable whether you should fold pre but given your on the btn vs an easily readable player and with the whale bb still to play i guess its ok. Also folding turn is fine i think, if he bet a little more im definitely folding, but with his bet size i may call and reeval river.

what im thinking is with his bet size is it a fold while a bigger bet size could be a call lol

Maybe with certain players, but i think with this guy whos really str8 forward his bet sizing represents the strength of his hand i.e. hed bet more on such a drawy board. I guess I could be completely wrong as i havnt played with this guy. Im leaning towards calling and folding to a river bet unimproved.

There's two sides in this. He could be trying to draw himself in, but it's weird for him to be bluffing with this sizing.

I really doesn't make much sense for a strong hand to bet this small. It really smells like a draw or a AJ/KJ hand trying to let the worse pairs in for small value.

I think you can call the turn on hand 2. I agree it's close because we're facing some RIO as well and we're not ahead that much and don't really wanna see many river cards. But with these odds I'm peeling one more probably.


Btw, hand 1 I'm likely raising flop. For balance and ofcourse straight up value especially with your read. But I'm interested in more responses.
